FOURTH GRADUATION OF THE STUDENTS OF IWACU KAZOZA SCHOOL

46 students, girls and boys graduated today, on  April 8, 2021. This is the results of what our donors, friends and friends of friends have done through their financial support and prayers.

We are  very grateful to each one of you all who continue to support financially  Iwacu Kazoza School.  Iwacu Kazoza School is very grateful to each one of you   for your  donations  which continues to enable JRMD continue to provide education to the underprivileged children.

Education is the key for a promising and a future stable life. If you want to lead a promising life and experience the good things that the World has to offer, you certainly need to get educated. To get a great job, a good social reputation, benefit your community and nation are few of the many benefits of being an educated person in the today’s World.

In Burundi, especially in Cibitoke, where Iwacu Kazoza School is providing education to the underprivileged and orphaned children, the following reasons  continue to make many children not to go at school or abandon the school:

• Inability of parents to pay school fees for their children
• Inability of parents to provide school materials and uniform
• Inability of parents to provide food to their children before and when they come back home from school, even spend a night without eating

In one word, poverty is the cause of many children not to have access to education in Burundi, Africa. That’s why Iwacu Kazoza School is providing education to the underprivileged and orphaned children so that they can also have a chance in the future to lead a promising life and experience the good things that the World has to offer. This work of providing education to the underprivileged and orphaned children continues because of you and friends, and friends of friends.

A donation of $125 will provide education to one underprivileged or orphaned child schooling at Iwacu Kazoza School, including his/her school materials and uniform. You can help one or more of the above mentioned children who can not have access to their education due to the poverty of their parents or because they are orphans. This can be done by joining hands together with the community within and the community beyond.

It was a great Joy and laughter for each one of us to celebrate the graduation of 46  Students boys and girls  of Iwacu Kazoza School graduated after 3  years studying Computer Management ( Informatique de Gestion). I am very grateful and appreciative to our donors, friends and friends of friends for continuing to helping us make possible this work to continue to provide education to  over 500 underprivileged and orphaned children, schooling at Iwacu Kazoza School.
