Akagera Good Neighbors, a charity in Rwanda, focuses on addressing the issue of street children, locally known as “abamarine.” These children engage in gang behavior, grabbing belongings and disappearing into wetlands. Living in deplorable conditions away from families, many do not attend school. Initiated by Jean Bosco Bamuririmbe’s family as part of Akagera Neighbors Ltd’s corporate social responsibility, the program started in mid-2022, emphasizing sanitation, family reintegration, and re-schooling.

To combat the widespread issue of street children, Akagera Good Neighbors engages in weekly sharing sessions, addressing common challenges and incentives against staying in school. The organization believes in breaking the cycle by involving families through socio-economic schemes, keeping kids engaged with school and future employment.
