Rebuild Futures Scholarship Campaign
Raising CAD $17,000 by April 2027 to equip 8 Banyamulenge youth with vocational skills for a sustainable future.
Displacement takes away a home. It doesn't have to take away a future.
Conflict and displacement have disrupted the lives of thousands of Banyamulenge families. Many young people have experienced interrupted education, limited access to professional training, and a reduced ability to support their families and communities.
Humanitarian assistance is essential during times of crisis, but long-term recovery requires sustainable solutions. Rebuild Futures invests in vocational education, skills that create employment opportunities, promote self-reliance, and travel with a person wherever displacement takes them next.
Eight students. Eight trades. One training partner.
The first cohort trains at Sensei College in Nairobi, Kenya, each scholar enrolled in one certified vocational program.
