What a Grand Study Tour! From volcanoes to waterfalls, our 4th-year students visited many of Rwanda’s natural wonders. They also saw exciting industries including hydropower, food production, medical research, wildlife conservation, and more in action!

Geology in action! Our 4th-year students hiked to the nearby Rubona community quarry to study how the quarry impacts the environment and surrounding community. They also learned important lessons in sustainable entrepreneurship.

Aim for the stars! Our 3rd- and 4th-year students got to chat with representatives from universities across Rwanda during our Education Fair. From hospitality to the sciences, these institutions are producing professionals who are leading Rwanda’s growing industries. #SeeFarGoFar

What do you want to be? Our students connected with 60 professionals during the ASYV Career Fair. The leaders in hospitality, business, health, finance, creative arts, and more talked with our young people about exciting internship opportunities and career paths. #SeeFarGoFar

ASYV students gathered to celebrate the life & legacy of Sifa Nsengimana, our founding Executive Director. Sifa often told our kids, “If you see far, you will go far,” and her vision set ASYV on the path to going far and becoming the thriving community we are today. #SeeFarGoFar

On the job! We partnered with @HarambeeRw, a Rwandan organization accelerating youth employment, to prep our 4th-year students with the interview skills they’ll need to secure fulfilling jobs after graduation.

Thank youfor helping our kids thrive! #YouthEmployment #SeeFarGoFar

A huge ASYV thank you to former Rwandan national 🏀 basketball team captain Aristide Mugabe (@AriMugabe88) for visiting the Village to run a basketball clinic! He shared invaluable skills, expert tips, and a big dose of inspiration with our boys and girls teams. #SeeFarGoFar

“This was my first ASYV mentor event. A mentor really encouraged and inspired me to believe everything I want to achieve is possible," says student Teta Charity. During the two-day event, our kids learned from and networked with professionals in multiple fields. #SeeFarGoFar

Shortly after arriving at ASYV, Kevine, a 2nd-year student, picked up a sax for the first time. One year later... “I’m playing songs without mistakes and mentoring others,” she says. “I chose to commit myself because you never know where you can reach.”  #DreamBig #SeeFarGoFar
