This year, we celebrated one of our most beautiful and impactful seasons yet with the Humura Program, a space where women come together to find rest, encouragement, and hope. “Humura” means “be comforted” in Kinyarwanda, and that is exactly what this program continues to offer: a place of peace, laughter, and shared strength for women […]
