The Rwanda Project USVI began in 2008 when students from Ivanna Eudora Kean High School, led by teacher Barbara Young, aimed to visit Rwanda to meet a sponsored orphan, Vickie Umuhoza. The project involved fundraising efforts and collaboration with first lady Cecile deJongh and photographer Sonya Melescu. The trip included community service activities in Rwanda and fostered cultural connections. The project was supported by various contributors, including the J. Epstein V.I. Foundation Inc. and other individuals and organizations. The document also provides an overview of Rwanda's economic situation post-genocide and its efforts towards economic stabilization and growth.
