🎒 A new school year is underway in Rwanda, and we’re grateful to welcome 60 new students into RAS support. From tuition and school supplies to mattresses, meals, health support, and other essentials, back-to-school support means removing the barriers that can keep a student from learning. More than 200 students are now moving forward with RAS behind them. 💛 🎓 Give a student the gift of education.

🇷🇼 What a journey. What a welcome. What a reminder of why we do this work. ❤️ This year’s Rising Above the Storms Immersion Trip to Rwanda has come to an end, and we’re returning home with full hearts and so many unforgettable memories. We spent time with our students, staff, and community - learning together, sharing experiences, celebrating, and seeing firsthand the impact of the programs and resources our supporters help make possible. From delivering much-needed supplies and learning tools to connecting face-to-face with the people at the heart of RAS, every moment made this trip incredibly special. To everyone who donated, supported, encouraged, and helped bring this experience to life: Thank you. You were part of this journey, too. These photos capture just a few of the moments we’ll carry with us. 🇷🇼❤️ #RiseAbove #RASInRwanda #Rwanda #CommunityImpact #StudentSupport #Education #MakingADifference

𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝟒 𝐨𝐟 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐑𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚 𝐈𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧—and our final day with the students—gave us so many reasons to celebrate. ❤️🇷🇼 ⚽ We started on the soccer field with our team from the RAS street-connected program. They won 6–4, and our group cheered with pride, but what impressed us most was their discipline, teamwork, and respect. For some of these young people, that represents tremendous growth. When an opposing player had a minor injury, one of our boys immediately went over and embraced him. 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐦𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐬𝐚𝐢𝐝 𝐬𝐨 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐟𝐚𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞. 🙌🏾 💃 Back at the Center, our students shared an incredible dance performance before we moved into a storytelling session. Students and guests exchanged stories of successes, failures, lessons learned, and perseverance. The questions, laughter, and openness made the room come alive. ✍🏾 To keep our students practicing, we launched a storytelling contest, with awards for the top five stories. We want them to become confident in telling their own stories—in their own voices. ❤️ And then came the goodbyes. We talked, hugged, took endless photos, and lingered far longer than planned. There were tears on both sides. In just three days together, our students and guests formed connections far deeper than we could have imagined. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩𝐬 𝐝𝐢𝐝𝐧’𝐭. What an extraordinary three days with our students. We are deeply grateful to everyone who made them possible. 🇷🇼❤️ #RiseAbove #RisingAbovetheStorms #Rwanda #Education #YouthDevelopment #Storytelling #Teamwork #Community

𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝟑 𝐭𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐮𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫—and deeper into the lives, resilience, and dreams of our students. ❤️🇷🇼 🏡 We began by visiting three families in their homes. We listened, learned, delivered food, and saw firsthand why the support surrounding each student matters. One message came through repeatedly: our Rwanda staff have become trusted listeners, mentors, and an extension of these families. 🎨 Our guests also rolled up their sleeves to help paint the home of siblings in our program whom RAS continues to support with groceries and other needs. 💼 The afternoon shifted toward the future. Our Grade 10 through university students joined our guests for candid career conversations about education, mentors, interviewing, responsible AI, showcasing their skills, knowing their values, persevering through discouragement, and refusing to be defined by their circumstances. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚 𝐝𝐚𝐲—𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐛𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐥𝐲 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐠𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠. ❤️ We are deeply grateful to our guests for showing up with their time, experience, compassion, and willingness to listen. #RiseAbove #RisingAbovetheStorms #Rwanda #Education #Mentorship #Community #StudentSuccess

Christy designed and led the activities, while Idrissa—our first college graduate and one of our earliest students—stepped in to translate and support others. #Teamwork 🙌🏾 📸 By the end, no one seemed ready to leave. Students and guests lingered for photos, laughter, and more conversation. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐚𝐢𝐝 𝐢𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐥. ☕ We capped the day with our first 𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐑𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚, joined by @cisco employees around the world and special guest Fran Katsoudas, @Cisco’s Executive Vice President and Chief People, Policy & Purpose Officer. Fran shared powerful lessons on resilience, leadership, knowing your values, taking ownership of your future, and using success to create opportunities for others. Our students also had the opportunity to ask her questions directly. ⚡ Even a brief power outage couldn’t stop the momentum—we adapted and kept going. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐭𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫. ❤️🇷🇼 #RiseAbove #RisingAbovetheStorms #Rwanda #Education #Cisco #Community

We still cannot believe our inaugural Rwanda Immersion Trip has come and gone. ❤️🇷🇼 For this first journey, 10 of our donors and supporters from across the United States, led by our founder @alphonsine_ras, came together in Rwanda to experience the heart of @risingabovethestorms firsthand—to learn, serve, connect with our students and staff, and better understand the communities behind the work they have helped make possible. Over the next few posts, we’ll take you back through this unforgettable week, beginning with Day 1. We started at the Kigali Genocide Memorial, where more than 250,000 victims of the Genocide against the Tutsi are laid to rest. It was a solemn and essential beginning—time to learn, reflect, and honor the lives of our loved ones who were taken simply because they were Tutsi. From remembrance, the day opened into Rwanda’s culture, creativity, energy, and beauty. We enjoyed lunch with live music, visited Irebe Arts Center to watch a weaving demonstration and support local artisans, experienced the lively Kimironko Market, and ended the afternoon watching the sunset at Nyandungu Eco Park before gathering for dinner. Day 1 gave our guests important context. To understand the work of RAS and the young people we serve, it matters to understand both the history that shaped Rwanda and the resilience, beauty, and hope that define the country today. And that was only the beginning. ❤️ #RiseAbove #RisingAbovetheStorms #Rwanda #Kwibuka32 #VisitRwanda #Community #Impact

Our guests are on their way, and we cannot wait to welcome them to Rwanda! 🇷🇼❤️ This weekend, we will welcome our inaugural @risingabovethestorms Rwanda Immersion group. Next week will be busy, full, and exciting. Our guests will spend time with our students and their families, meet our Rwanda team, participate in activities at the Center, and experience the work of RAS up close. We will be sharing photos, stories, and special moments throughout the week, so follow along here for updates. ✨ There is still time to be part of the impact. Your support will help us provide additional resources for our students, families, and programs.

July brings us one month closer to Rwanda. 🇷🇼 Preparations are underway for our first RAS immersion trip. But the work behind the trip is already happening every day — through counseling, school and family follow-up, student support, and the steady commitment of our Rwanda team. Throughout July, we will share more about the students at the heart of this mission, the work happening on the ground, and what we are preparing to bring with us in August. The trip is getting closer. The work continues. Follow along in July as we share more from Rwanda and prepare for August. #RiseAbove #Rwanda #EducationMatters #StudentSupport #SocialImpact

As part of our RAS immersion trip, a small group of supporters will carry the laptops with them and hand-deliver them to students and our Rwanda team. Each laptop sponsored will be more than a donation receipt. Donors will receive a photo of the recipient after delivery, so you can see the student or team member your gift helped equip. A laptop costs $700 and includes the operating system and Microsoft Office Suite. Sponsor one laptop, or give any amount toward a laptop before our August trip. 👉 Donate here: https://secure.givelively.org/donate/rising-above-the-storms/ras-laptop-campaign-2026 #RiseAbove #DigitalAccess #EducationMatters #Rwanda #StudentSuccess

For street-connected youth, school holidays are not always a break. They can be a test of structure, discipline, and how time is used. Every Tuesday and Thursday, our students gather at the Center in groups. Some wash clothes and shoes. Some care for the kitchen garden. Some clean shared spaces and bedding. They also participate in group counseling, computer and digital learning, music, and football. Every hour is intentional. Because when time is left empty, risk can fill the gap. Last month, our football team won their match 1–0. That is what discipline looks like when it is built day by day — in routines, responsibility, guidance, learning, creativity, and on the field. Keep building with us: https://risingabovethestorms.org/donations/ #RiseAbove #Rwanda #StreetConnected #YouthDevelopment #BeyondTuition

When the father of one of our students in Rwanda fell ill, our team visited the family — and brought groceries. When he passed, they visited the widow. The student's sponsor, moved by the news, reached out independently to support the grieving family. One student. One community. Showing up at every turn. This is Rising Above the Storms. 👉 Join us and sponsor a student: https://risingabovethestorms.org/donate/sponsor-a-scholar/ #RiseAbove #Rwanda #ChildSponsorship #BeyondTuition

4 days before our first RAS immersion group arrives, final preparations are in motion. Our founder, @alphonsine_ras has arrived in Rwanda ahead of the group and is working with our Rwanda team to prepare student activities, coordinate supplies, review logistics, and get ready to welcome our visitors. Thanks to generous donors, the laptops and community service project have been funded. Additional gifts will help us purchase and provide more of what students and families need while we are there, including school supplies, groceries, program materials, and items identified by our Rwanda team. We are grateful for everyone helping make this visit meaningful for our students, staff, and community. There is still time to support the campaign: https://secure.givelively.org/donate/rising-above-the-storms/ras-immersion-trip-to-rwanda-2026 More to come as our guests arrive #RiseAbove #StudentSupport #WholeChildSupport #EducationAccess

Students need support that reaches beyond the classroom. At RAS, education support includes more than school fees, uniforms, and supplies. It also includes trusted adults, counseling, creative expression, life-skills activities, sports, and spaces where students can build confidence, discipline, teamwork, and resilience. These are the supports that help students stay steady, connected, and ready to keep learning. Because helping a child remain in school also means supporting the whole child. #RiseAbove #WholeChildSupport #StudentSupport #EducationAccess #YouthDevelopment

❤️🇷🇼 𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐑𝐀𝐒 𝐑𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚 𝐈𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐰𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐲 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐮𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞. 🌿 We closed our journey at Ishobe, a cultural farm outside Kigali where 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐑𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐧 𝐩𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐫 𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐝. 🌾 Our group experienced how earlier generations prepared food and worked the land—grinding sorghum by hand, preparing cassava flour with a traditional mortar and pestle, learning how bananas were ripened and made into juice, and watching traditional cow milking. We even helped cut a bunch of bananas that later became part of our lunch. ♻️ We loved seeing how everything on the farm connects—cattle, crops, food, and natural fertilizer all supporting one another. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐢𝐭. 🥁 Young Intore (traditional Rwandan dancers) and drummers brought incredible energy before we gathered for a traditional lunch of plantains, beans, cassava, potatoes, cassava leaves, fresh banana juice, and banana beer for those who wanted to try it. 🤝 It was a beautiful way to close a week that took us through Rwanda’s history and culture, into the homes of our students, alongside our staff, and into relationships none of us could have fully anticipated. ✈️ Then came the bittersweet goodbyes. Some members of our group headed to the airport while others continued exploring Rwanda. 🙏🏾 To our inaugural group: thank you for traveling thousands of miles, giving your time and resources, opening yourselves to our students, families, staff, culture, and stories—and for trusting this vision.❤️ 🇷🇼 𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐑𝐀𝐒 𝐑𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚 𝐈𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔 𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐬.

Fabrice is a freshman studying Quantity Surveying at the University of Rwanda’s College of Science and Technology. During a recent visit by our staff, he shared that his studies are going well and that he is working hard to achieve his goals. Fabrice has a 1:1 sponsor today. That support helps him stay focused and keep moving forward. But more students are still waiting for that same opportunity.

The school year has started. Some students still need sponsors. RAS is now supporting over 200 students in Rwanda, including 60 newly welcomed students this school year. Monthly sponsorship helps make student support more predictable—not just for the first week of school, but for the months ahead. Grade School Sponsorship: $55/month College Sponsorship: $100/month Your recurring gift helps RAS continue providing the support students need to remain in school and keep moving forward.

Some of the most important student support happens in ordinary moments. At the RAS Center, students learn, play, practice responsibility, build friendships, and spend time with trusted adults who know them. A meal. A conversation. A group activity. A shared responsibility. A safe place to return to. These moments may not always look dramatic, but they help students stay connected, steady, and supported. That is part of the work your support makes possible. #RiseAbove #StudentSupport #WholeChildSupport #YouthDevelopment

Education doesn’t stop when the school day ends. For our students in Rwanda, having someone who knows their story, understands their challenges, and is there when circumstances change can make a lasting difference. Our local team works alongside students, families, and schools to identify challenges early and connect students with the support they need, from counseling and family outreach to regular check-ins and follow-up. It’s not just about keeping students in school. It’s about making sure they have a strong support system around them as they grow. This is what whole - child support looks like at RAS. ❤️ Learn more: www.risingabovethestorms.org #RiseAbove #WholeChildSupport #StudentSuccess #YouthDevelopment #EducationForAll

At our Center in Rwanda, a hot meal is not an extra. It is part of the work. During a recent school visit, one student shared that she struggles academically because her family often does not have enough food in the evenings. She still shows up. That is why we support the whole child. When students come to the Center, they can count on a hot meal, care, and encouragement. When needs arise at home, our team steps in as logistics and resources allow. Because a child cannot learn well on an empty stomach. 👉 Sponsor a gift toward their future: https://secure.givelively.org/donate/rising-above-the-storms/ras-future-leaders-circle #RiseAbove #EducationChangesLives #OneStudentAtATime

🎉 Later this summer, a group of RAS supporters will experience our work firsthand on the ground in Rwanda. This August, Rising Above the Storms is bringing a group of supporters to Rwanda to meet the students we support, spend time with our team, and experience how this mission comes to life. Together, we will also help bring practical resources — including laptops and school supplies — that support students as they continue learning and moving forward. Proximity matters. You can still be part of this impact trip — donate to this mission and travel with us in spirit. 👉https://secure.givelively.org/donate/rising-above-the-storms/ras-immersion-trip-to-rwanda-2026 #RiseAbove #Rwanda2026 #EducationMatters #SocialImpact
