We believe in the power of women-led change.
Umurage Growth is a Rwandan-based nonprofit that believes in the power of women-led change at the grassroots level. We empower women (of all ages) to discover their potential, grow personally, and become change-makers. The Vision of Umurage Growth is to create a society of women who are empowered to play a vital role in building healthy and sustainable communities.
“I have discovered that I am a powerful woman; to me, to my family, and my community.”
