GiveDirectly joins Rwanda in solemn remembrance, marking 32 years since the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi. We remember those we lost, stand with survivors, and recommit to remembrance, resilience, and a future where such tragedy never happens again.
#Kwibuka32
A quick recap from one of the biggest weeks we’ve ever had in Rwanda.
@NickAllardice was in Rwanda this week, joined by friends of GiveDirectly, partners who believe in moving fast and funding what works. Together with the Government of Rwanda and @RwandaFinance , we signed a landmark Poverty Acceleration Co-Financing Basket Fund Framework Agreement to mobilize $150M+ (Rwf 219B) over five years, with a bold goal: reduce poverty by 25% across five high-poverty districts, in alignment with #NST2. Big week. Bold commitment. Real momentum.

The #PodsFightPoverty campaign is now DOUBLING donations from new donors through December, sending cash to 3 Rwandan villages in extreme poverty.
With the support of 40+ podcasts, we’ve made amazing progress. But there’s much more to do. Our team in Rwanda said families continue to face daily challenges like food insecurity, leaky roofs, and paying school fees.
You can help by donating at https://t.co/xNsZpGfENw. Over $400k in matching funds from @GiveMultiplier expire at the end of December.
