BB Energy Foundation in Rwanda
Discover how we are working to empower women and children in Rwanda through our strategic partnerships.
Rwanda, home to around 14 million people, continues to rebuild and grow through education, equality, and community empowerment. Despite strong progress in economic reform and gender equality, challenges such as poverty, youth unemployment, and gender-based violence persist—especially for women and children in rural areas.
The BB Energy Foundation partners with local, women-led organisations to create lasting, community-driven change. In Rwanda, our work focuses on education, economic empowerment, and protection for women, girls, and young people.
Our partners include Women for Women Rwanda, Urugo Women’s Opportunity Centre, SEVOTA, Haguruka, and YWCA Rwanda. Together, we support programmes that train adolescent girls in entrepreneurship and leadership, strengthen legal and psychosocial services for survivors of gender-based violence, and expand vocational training in tailoring, shoe production, and other income-generating skills.
These partnerships reach thousands of women and girls across districts such as Kicukiro, Kayonza, Kamonyi, Musanze, and Muhanga, helping them build confidence, access justice, and create independent livelihoods.
Through this work, the Foundation contributes to Rwanda’s long-term goals for equality, opportunity, and sustainable development—uplifting those who already have the strength and vision to transform their communities.
