Empower a family in Rwanda with cash transfers
The Life You Can Save is partnering with GiveDirectly to deliver your matched donations directly to participating families in the Nyanza district in Rwanda. And, thanks to Humanitix’s match to this campaign, we will be able to help twice as many families - up to 386 in total.
Each family will receive ~$1,100 through GiveDirectly’s cash transfer program, empowering them to address their most pressing needs and invest in their futures: building a new house, starting a new business, paying school fees, and more.
Your donation will have a lasting impact for Rwandan families in need
39% of Rwandans live in extreme poverty, surviving on less than $3/day. 1 in 3 children are malnourished. Preliminary research from GiveDirectly’s current program in Rwanda has shown that your donation will help families move towards more sustainable livelihoods:
