This upcoming trip will occur during the refugee students’ summer break. This allows our students more time at a safe boarding school, instead of sending them back the entire summer break to the camp’s living conditions, giving them more opportunity for success.
To do this, we provide instruction in technical and life skills. We are looking for individuals or groups who can assist our teachers in the following areas:
You will enjoy times of singing, worship, playing games, soccer, and much more with these young adults. We provide the opportunity for team members to share life experiences with our students as they love to hear from you!
NOTE: Terrain consists of hills; all attendees MUST be able to walk uphill and navigate uneven surfaces without assistance.

NOTE: If you have severe dietary restrictions, this may not be the trip for you. Please limit your personal belongings to one personal item i.e. purse/backpack and one carry-on and ONE 50-pound bag. In a second 50-pound bag, each participant should expect to help take supplies over, such as materials or tools.
Optional items:
*Electrical service in Rwanda is 220-240 Volts. Ensure any electrical appliance you bring is rated similarly or is dual-voltage (i.e., 120/240 V, 50/60 Hz) and that you bring the “European Style” power adapters and converters necessary for your electronics. (Note: Many cell phones or camera battery chargers are dual voltage and do not need converters).
Men and women should wear pants and short/long-sleeve plain shirts. Sleeveless shirts or shorts are not recommended, except for the day at the Akagera Safari Game Park. Dresses should be AT LEAST knee length. Please dress in a conservative and professional manner. Because of the climate, lightweight, breathable clothing is recommended.
The 2 homes are basic and clean. Due to the location, electricity, hot water, as well as water pressure and internet is limited and is occasionally not available – It’s a mission trip 🙂
