Our Story
BORN FROM
RESILIENCE
Women for Women Rwanda (WfW-Rwanda) is a non-governmental organization committed to promoting dignity, freedom, and equality for women. Our journey began in 1997 when we witnessed the devastating effects of the 1994 genocide on vulnerable women facing poverty, depression, and helplessness.
In 2021, we became a local Rwandan affiliate. Every year, more than 300 women aged 18–55 are enrolled in our 12-month signature program, meeting bi-weekly in groups of 25 to learn, share, and support one another.
