It was a pleasure to begin our new FY27 with a Day of Prayer. With God’s grace, we shall achieve more than we planned for.
Before @WVRwanda & @VFRwanda existed, before strategies & targets, God loved the world. Our work is not just about organizational performance at the heart of our mission, we serve a God who sees & loves people." — Grace Dushimimana, CEO Vision Fund Rwanda

Partnership is about showing up, learning together, and seeing what changes over time. Today, alongside Citizens Rights Development (@crd_rw), we welcomed Gonzague Matsiko, Vice Mayor in charge of Economic Development in @NyagatareDistr, and his team for a visit recognising our continued partnership. The visit reflected on the importance of mindset change amongst citizens to advance development , citizen participation, how we can benefit more from using Citizen Assemblies, and good governance. Grateful for the recognition and for the opportunity to keep working alongside communities and local government in Nyagatare. @RwandaEast @RwandaLocalGov
