Why Help the Marembo Center?

  • Despite the overwhelming number of youth in Rwanda, there is a scarcity of youth-friendly services available that encourage and support their attendance and involvement.
  • Centre Marembo in Kigali, Rwanda, provides a unique place for children and young people from all backgrounds to meet, learn and develop together.
  • You can buy gifts at their giftshop!
