Board members receive warm welcome at Rwinkwavu School
The schoolchildren are singing, dancing and drumming with all their hearts. Hundreds of villagers, their energy palpable, encircle their three visitors in jubilant celebration, even encouraging the “Muzungus” (westerners) to join them in dance. Gratitude for their new school cannot be contained.
More than 600 students were part of the celebration—with music, dancing and speeches–at the March 26 official announcement of Grace Rwanda’s partnership with the Rwinkwavu School. “Each speaker was so grateful for what Grace Rwanda has done,” says Franco Bordignon, Grace Rwanda’s vice chair. “I didn’t think we had done that much, but that’s not the way they saw it.”
