I became involved with this nonprofit last year when I traveled to Rwanda to watch it in action. I am so grateful for this experience and witnessing the work that this organization does is life changing for everyone involved. Donors get to revisit the website or social media and see real time updates on where and how their money is being put to use. Volunteers get to witness the smiles and laughs and shouts of joy that followed us to each building project and make the hard work entirely worth it.
This organization is building homes, communities, and futures for human beings who are struggling to make it through each day. Providing security and comfort....love and friendship...this nonprofit is truly inspiring. I will return to Rwanda as often as possible to watch this community flourish with the help of all of you. Donate, share stories, give support....a little bit goes a long way when you are giving to a community with close to nothing.
I have been connected with Inshuti and its progress since the beginning. Whether it be because I am a donor, because I am connected to volunteers or board members, it has brought so much joy to my heart watching this nonprofit grow & bloom. I love that Inshuti always shares the progress of the housing projects and where the donated funds are being distributed. Seeing these families lives being enriched and their conditions being greatly improved brings sunshine & rainbows to all the recipients who benefit from this nonprofit.
I have been donating to Inshuti for several years; Each time I am impressed and pleased by the efficiency and transparency - to know exactly where/what your money is being allocated
and see the work in progress is great. I am happy to know my contributions have helped provide families in need with safe and decent housing.

Inshuti is a great non-profit for it's transparency - one can choose where their donation goes to - whether it be a window, a mattress or a whole house.
The personal stories of each family that you can donate to is also an impactful way for donors to fully appreciate the potential good they can bring to the community by participating.
For the past five years, I have followed Inshuti of Rwanda and donated to their building campaigns. I am continuously amazed at the donations Rosa and her team have raised each year to house genocide survivors. I am also confident my contributions go directly to building these homes in Rwanda with very little administrative costs (5%). This non-profit has shown growth and stability. Over the years, I have become familiar with many of the families through the Inshuti of Rwanda website. The website is informative to what has transpired in the past and what the projection is for families who have been selected to receive their new homes.
I've been following this organization since its conception and am continually impressed with their dedication to helping the lives of Rwandan families.
Inshuti of Rwanda is transparent with how they use their donations and provide continuous updates on the families that they help. As a donor, I am sent photos and stories that make me feel like I am there and a part of the build.
I love donating and following the work of Inshuti of Rwanda!
The effort that Rosa and the team put into the project is amazing and seeing them changing the lives of families is heartwarming!!
Thank you Inshuti of Rwanda for putting up all the effort to actually make a change!
Rosa and the team are doing fantastic and important work. Providing work, housing and hope is such a great way of helping the people in Rwanda. I love how transparent the donation process is and how much love is embedded in the whole project. Keep up the great work!
Inshuti of Rwanda is continuing its good works providing necessary aide through humane and essential giving. One only has to observe the faces of the recipients, with the very competent Rosa, to realize the good works this nonprofit is rendering.

Am an Inshuti of Rwanda coordintor in Rwanda but have witnessed Inshuti of Rwanda putting smiles on many people’s faces giving them hope of living.í ½í¹
I discovered Inshuti 2 years back and am following what they are achieving so far. I was very impressed by their last campaign and by how much they have accomplished ! It made me realize how life changing it must be for people they are helping over there in Rwanda. what a great project they have !
As the founder and executive director of Inshuti of Rwanda, I am really proud to share the work we are doing. Inshuti builds houses for impoverished families living in deplorable conditions due to a lack of resources. We also provide local jobs and livable wages to our masons and workers. Our houses are built with local, often sustainable materials which helps boost the Rwandan economy.
We believe housing is a human right. Everyone deserves refuge from the elements and to raise their children in a safe environment. It is our vision that once the fundamental need for shelter is met, the families who dwell in these homes will have the opportunity to start building their own, independent lives.
Inshuti of Rwanda is a big part of my life and the families that we help are now a part of my extended family. What we do makes an insurmountable difference to our house recipients and their lives are forever changed because of it. It is what drives me to continue this work. I have high hopes and great ambition to continue growing Inshuti, thus build more houses per year, helping more families, and support our community in Rwanda.
I am a new member of the team and have been completely satisfied with the teamwork and effort of Inshuti. Expenses are kept low and productivity is high. The results have been outstanding and a joy to contribute to thus far.
I have four children and I am in the trenches of diapers, laundry and youth sports. Donating to Inshuti of Rwanda has broadened our little world into something much bigger. Seeing the lives that are changed, whether on Facebook or Inshuti's website, through Rosa's beautiful photography, brings the stories to life. My older children are fascinated with the picture slideshows that show the progression of the homebuilding. Rosa captures each phase, but more importantly the expressions and emotions of the families. They love reading the subtitles and knowing everybody's names. My husband is a construction worker, so we especially appreciated the picture of one man throwing bricks over the wall to the next worker! The stories are detailed and personal and moving. Rosa sent a personal follow-up letter in the mail thanking us and telling the story of Hassan's house (he was one of the masons for Inshuti's first home and others thereafter). We feel blessed to contribute to such a great cause through a solid organization.
I have followed Inshuti of Rwanda's growth from 2014 building only a few homes to this year where 10 impoverished families received new homes. What is unique about Inshuti is their ability to screen potential families for their new "build" each year. Inshuti is very selective as to which families will receive their new home. Inshuti has certain criteria that needs to be met before a new home is considered and approved for each family. I know for a fact, 95% of the donations goes directly to the building projects. All the materials and labor are locally sourced whereby bringing money back to the community. After a home is completed, the family takes pride in it's upkeep and realizes how lucky they were to be chosen by Inshuti of Rwanda. This is why I donate year-after-year to Inshuti because I know their organization is honest, dedicated and passionate about the Rwandans.
The picture is a "Thank You" picture for the donation made for building one home for this family.
I have watched this wonderful organization grow from an idea to one that has sustained and enabled families in this small Rwandan village. Funds contributed go for materials and local labor to build strong homes. The first year, there were two homes...then each year the number grew. Too often, we regard problems as too big to solve, too big for our contributions to make a difference. Inshuti simply gets to work....one house at a time. I am proud to support such a fine non-profit.
I meet Rosa and she explain me her project. I have been in Rwanda myself and found her idea wonderfull! This is a very concrete and useful help that she crest with Inshuti of Rwanda. I saw her working on the project while she was on holiday herself. She is full of energy and share it with people who need it. I could only help her by donate for the moment but if I have the chance, I would love to go and help on the field!
