Social Enterprise in Rwanda: Creating Sustainability
Umeeda Switlo went to Rwanda to give her fundraising skills to an impoverished community.She decided to work with those that had the biggest challenges, which was UPHLS, an umbrella organization working with people with disabilities and HIV/AIDS, and NOUSPR, a national organization working with users and survivors of psychiatry.
They did not want to be dependent on funds from outside the country. They set about focusing on fundraising in Rwanda, using social enterprise and other tools to build independence and sustainability.
The results are inspiring and can be applied to what you do right here.
