Meet Marie-Solange One of Our 2019 Graduates!

By Amelia Cheshire | Development Coordinator

Marie Solange
Marie Solange

The women in our University Leadership Program have overcome so many obstacles just to participate in our program! So their graduations are a big deal! This year we celebrated 33 graduates, 13 of whom are women!

Marie-Solange is the oldest of seven children and her family grew up in an agricultural village in Rwanda. Her mom is a teacher, so education has always been emphasized in her family. She sees the need for healthcare professionals who invest in patient care, prevention, education, and proper treatment. She will be a fierce leader in her field.

Marie-Solange graduated this Summer from medical school and she will be placed as an intern doctor in a local hospital! We know she will give her patients such exceptional care!

We have been featuring our 2019 Graduates on our social media all summer long – check out the links below to meet all of them! Their stories are incredible and we are so proud of all they have accomplished. Yet graduation is not the end, it is only the beginning! Our graduates will begin their careers, equipped with the skills they need to secure jobs, and empowered to be leaders who cultivate thriving communities! 

Your generosity to this project has helped fund our work to educate, equip, and empower the brilliant women in our program! Your continued generosity helps us to uphold our commitment to the students in our program.
