Since the very beginning of our work in the genocide survivor's village, Patrick, Alphonse, and Augustin have demonstrated integrity and potential. These three brothers became separated during the genocide, then found each other years later. Patrick and Alphonse were among the first students SEED supported. The two completed their “books” (required research projects) in December 2016 and graduated from the university in March 2017.

Augustin, who endured unspeakable abuse and physical wounds during the genocide, needed extra time to complete high school and start college. He re-enrolled in the university in 2014. All three brothers proved their commitment to their studies and chosen by FARG, a Rwandan government program that pays for genocide survivor education. Without SEED’s initial support of food, basic care, and fees to enter the educational system, this would not have occurred. We are thrilled for these amazing young men!
