The new school is truly a solution we needed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nzabonimpa Agnes who also resides in Kamabuye said that it was hard for children to walk long distances especially during rainy seasons and that some of them dropped out of school because of it. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur children had to walk to school even in the rain. It was hard on them and it also impacted negatively their grades.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Apart from contributing to building the school, Plan International also donated sewing machines to a 100 under 18 girls who were impregnated. The girls received an 8-month training in couture.<\/p>\n<p>Sebareze Jean Lambert, Plan International Rwanda representative said that as a humanitarian organization, the initiative was one of their duties. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are relentless in driving change to advance children\u2019s rights and equality for girls. Building a school and donating sewing machines to underage girls who were unexpectedly impregnated is our contribution to promoting better lives and one of our core duties.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mutabazi Richard, Bugesera mayor emphasized on the positive impact the school will have including reducing the number of school dropouts. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWalking kilometers to school every day was unbearable for children but with the new school in Munzenze, we are confident they won\u2019t be dropping out of school anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The new school will also facilitate handicapped children to access education.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-34627 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/ubwo_hatahwagwa_ibyumba_birindwi_by_amashuri_abanza_bya_munzenze_mu_karere_ka_bugesera-3e55b.jpg\" alt=\"Plan International Rwanda in partnership with Bugesera district administration has inaugurated 7 classrooms in Munzenze village, Kamabuye sector, Bugesera district. \" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-34628 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/bamwe_mu_batewe_inda_bari_munsi_y_imyaka_18_bahuguwe_mu_bijyanye_n_ubudozi_bakanahabw_aimiashini-b90bf.jpg\" alt=\"The project cost an estimated Rwf 93 million Including Rwf 80 million Plan International donated to complete the project\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-34629 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/ibyumba_byatashywe-1bb09.jpg\" alt=\"Bugesera district contributed Rwf 13 million and provided a plot as well as benches and teachers.\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-34630 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/meya_w_akarere_ka_bugesera_mutabazi_richard_ashyikiriza_impamyabumenyi_umukobwa_watewe_inda_wari_umaze_guhabw_aimashini_idoda_nyuma_yo_kubyigishwa_mu_mezi_umunani-ce314.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-34631 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/ubwo_umuyobozi_w_ingabo_mu_karere_ka_bugesera_yashyikirizaga_umwe_mu_batewe_inda_afite_imyaka_18_impamyabumenyi_nyuma_yo_kwigishwa_kudoda_no_guhabwa_imashini-f2b15.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-34632 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/umuyobozi_ya_porogaramo_za_plan_rwanda_sebareza_jean_lambert_ashyikiriza_umukobwa_wateweinda_aba_iwabo_impamyabumenyi_nyuma_yo_guhabwa_amahugurwa_yo_kududa_n_imashini_ibikora-a2b48.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-34633 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/umuyobozi_ya_porogaramo_za_plan_rwanda_sebareza_jean_lambert-0f361.jpg\" alt=\"Sebareze Jean Lambert, Plan International Rwanda representative said that as a humanitarian organization, the initiative was one of their duties. \" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Plan International Rwanda in partnership with Bugesera district administration has inaugurated 7 classrooms in Munzenze village, Kamabuye sector, Bugesera district.
