Aspire Rwanda provides hard-working young people with the skills and confidence to make their own choices which allow them to become self-sufficient.

Our graduates are able to use their skills to secure jobs, start their own businesses. Doing so, they break the cycle of poverty.
In the areas that we serve we have met many young girls high school drop outs unable to find employment and affected by extreme poverty. We would therefore like to expand our services to this group and continue a program that will help young women improve their livelihood through vocational skills training.

Through this program, Aspire Rwanda will identify and sponsor vulnerable young girls who would like to pursue TVET program that can be completed within one year. Selected young women affected by poverty and unemployment will be interviewed, supported by Aspire Rwanda. The program is designed to build confidence and plant seeds for future educational growth and development of livelihood

To implement this sustainable program, Aspire Rwanda is looking for individuals or organizations passionate about helping young people, specifically in gaining the necessary skills
