Meet Justin Nshimiyimana

We met Justin in Kigali in December of 2022. He is a tourism student at university in Kigali. Justin is an amazing young man with a gentle heart and a rough past. He lost his mother during the genocide and went to live with family in musanze district, where volcanoes national park is located. Justin’s upbringing and his extensive knowledge of the history, flora and fauna of Rwanda drove him to start a business in tourism. He was such an amazing guide during our time in Rwanda and we saw how hard he had to work, sometimes skipping meals to afford his books and school fees. We were so inspired by Justin’s drive and wonderful nature that now we are proud to announce that Justin’s school has been paid in full by Yooo! Rwanda Foundation. 
With one semester left to go, Justin’s tourism business has been steadily growing. We are so happy to help Justin but we know there are many more men and women just like Justin who need a hand, and we look forward to offering ours. Thank you to those who donated to make Justin’s dreams a reality.
