The Rwanda Project USA

Rwanda 🇷🇼 is introducing a rent‑to‑own housing plan to help low‑income families become homeowners.

In this programme, tenants pay regular rent plus a small extra amount that goes towards owning the home over time.

It starts in the Mpazi and Nyabisindu areas of Kigali, where families may own their homes after about 20 years.

The scheme includes government support and more affordable financing to make homeownership easier for people who can’t access traditional mortgages.

This past year was marked by numerous remarkable achievements and special moments. A major highlight was witnessing our former IU Books & Beyond students and current TRP volunteers visit former partner schools and make generous and thoughtful donations. It was particularly heartening to see them establish new connections and collectively celebrate their outstanding accomplishments. We extend our sincerest gratitude for your unwavering dedication and commitment to our Rwandan friends and communities. Umwaka Mushya Muhire!

Our students from Arc En Ciel NS return after Christmas break to find a fully renovated playground. Thank you, Headmistress Grace Munezero and TRP Team!

Umwaka Mushya Muhire! Happy New 2026 Year, from our TRP Team!

And just in time for the holidays, our TRP team built a brand new playground for the little elves at Arc En Ciel Nursery. Merry Christmas to some of our youngest community members!

This summer, before the return of our students, the TRP team completed another full renovation at the Kabuga Primary School. As we begin our transition to building with more durable materials, we also introduced our first set of metal swings. We hope that within a year or two, our project will begin incorporating a full set of metal exercise equipment provided to each public school in the Cyuve District.

To celebrate our 1 year anniversary with the Fountain Bilingual School, our TRP team did a full renovation and repair workshop. Thank you, Headmaster Muyoboke, for your support!
