“Where you have to put a lot of efforts, where it all begins, the foundation of it all, is in building yourselves as individuals, each one of you. Build yourselves, and keep on that volunteerism spirit. Your willingness alone is not enough, you have to build your capabilities and equip yourself with skills so that you can put in practice everything you are willing to do.” President Kagame | #YouthVolunteersMeetThePresident
