Deaf Action Ministry Rwanda

To you all.
and

Deaf Action Ministry Rwanda (DAMR) has successfully provided goats to 67 Deaf individuals from vulnerable families.
We extend our sincere thanks to the local churches for generously allowing us to use their premises for distribution, and to Deaf Ministries International for their generous support, which made this possible. These goats will offer sustainable food and income for the families.
We remain committed to reaching more Deaf families with development support.

Exciting news!
Deaf Action Ministry Rwanda (DAMR) is taking a big step toward self-sustainability through a rice farming project! 🌾
After harvesting, the rice is safely stored in a local cooperative’s warehouse, which helps us market and sell the produce. Once sold, the cooperative transfers the proceeds directly to DAMR’s bank account.
This is truly a blessing for our ministry, a significant milestone toward the long-term sustainability of DAMR's mission.

The Gospel should be accessible to all. And Deaf people deserve to hear the Gospel in a way they can fully understand.
Thank you, EAR Shyira, for providing us with a room to minister to the Deaf community.
