We believe that meaningful change begins when people choose to care. This is a glimpse of what happens when a community comes together with purpose, compassion, and a shared commitment to making a difference. ❤️ @kivunoircafe 🫶🏽 #OurPast26 #Kwibuka32 #CoffeeForACause

Last Saturday , we joined the community of Bugesera District, Musenyi Sector, to officially begin the renovation of a house for one of our beneficiaries. Supported by @QTSoftwareltd, @RSwitch, and Friends of Our Past, this activity was made even more special by the participation of the local community, who once again reminded us that meaningful change happens when people come together. We were also honored to learn more about our country's history through the testimony of a genocide survivor from the community, a powerful reminder of the importance of remembrance, resilience, and unity. Thank you all 🫶🏽 #OurPast26 #Kwibuka32

Today, we visited the two Menstrual Hygiene Management rooms established built in Bugesera District through our initiative with the support of our partners. These rooms currently serve over 800 students, 37 teachers, and the neighboring community. During the visit, we supplied essential materials for daily use and held discussions on potential projects to ensure the long-term sustainability of the facilities. Our goal is to build additional rooms to address the existing gap and contribute to the fight against period poverty. We would also like to thank @BRDbank , Ling Pads and friends of Our Past who made this possible. #OurPast26

Today, we visited the Kigali Genocide Memorial, in collaboration with Our Past Initiative to honor the lives lost in the genocide against the Tutsi in 1994. We were reminded that Kwibuka is not only about remembrance, but also a call to responsibility. As a technology company, we carry a duty to preserve the truth, counter denial, and ensure memory is never erased. “Remember, Unite, Renew” remains a commitment we carry forward. #Kwibuka32

On Wednesday evening, we gathered to mark Kwibuka 32, creating space to remember the victims of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi and reflect on Rwanda’s history. Through shared stories, thoughtful dialogue, and quiet moments of reflection, the evening brought different generations into one conversation, exploring what remembrance means today and the role each of us plays in keeping that memory alive. This space was made possible together with @norrskenEA, @Jasiri4Africa, @edencaremedical, and @Our_Past_In.

Yesterday, together with @norrskenEA, @Jasiri4Africa , @edencaremedical , and @WSH_Kigali, we gathered to remember and honor the victims of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi. It was a moment of reflection; creating space for intergenerational dialogue on memory, healing, and responsibility; considering the role of youth in preserving history and strengthening unity; and exploring how digital platforms can be used responsibly in remembrance and education. #Kwibuka32 #OurPast26
