Agahozo-Shalom Youth Village
Through healing, education, and love, the Agahozo-Shalom Youth Village (ASYV), empowers orphaned and vulnerable Rwandan youth, aged 14-21, to build lives of dignity and contribute to a better world. Founded in 2007 as a response to the persistent orphan crisis which arose in the aftermath of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda, ASYV has provided more than 1,400 youth with a newfound hope for the future, including over 900 graduates now striving to make a positive difference in Rwanda and abroad.
