Fighting Poverty through School Uniforms for Street Kids and Vocational Training for Vulnerable Youth

Uniforms Transform Campaign:

Help Rwanda’s street students get a school uniform through the Uniforms Transform Campaign.
If you had the opportunity to choose between keeping a child in Rwanda off the streets, or supplying a young adult with vocational training and a sustainable income, which would you choose? The Uniforms Transform Campaign invites you to fill the needs for BOTH education and job training simultaneously….all for only $12.00.
Uniforms Transform:

In Rwanda, every student is expected to wear a uniform to school. But for Rwanda's street students, purchasing a uniform is something that is completely beyond their reach. Without uniforms, Rwanda's street children can easily be perceived as troublemakers or criminals and be taken to jail while walking to school or searching for food at lunch time. A uniform is literally a safety net for these vulnerable children.

Providing a child with a uniform not only establishes them as students in their community but restores their dignity and provides an opportunity for a safer and more stable future. Furthermore, purchasing a uniform also impacts the young adult in a vocational training program who sews the uniform. A job opportunity like this is significant because though the majority of Rwandans survive off of subsistence farming, these young adults are able to earn fair wages and be contributors in their communities.
