- Personal notes:
I’m the 9th child in a family of 12 children. My parents are old, paysan farmers. They tried their best to pay for all of us the primary school, because of limited funds, they paid the secondary studies only for those who succeeded the national examination and went in public schools. Nowadays, I and my brother are doing the academic studies under the government’s loan. My three sisters are waiting for us to finish our studies and help them to continue. My parents, with a very low income, are paying the secondary studies to my two brothers. The big problem I have is that the bursary I usually received from SFAR (Student Financing Agency for Rwanda) is cancelled. This money was used to pay a hostel, food and school materials. Now, there is a high risk that I stop my studies this year.

- Personal notes:
I am a student in national University of Rwanda, Faculty of medicine, Department of pharmacy in the fourth year. I have done my secondary school at E.A.V Ntendezi. I was born in a poor familly of five children where I am the only one to attend school because of lack of funds. When I was in secondary school, my parents used to sell pieces of our land to find school fees for me and some materials. Both of my parents are cultivators and our small land is no longer productive.I was government sponsored, but now I am no longer sponsored by the government and I am unable to find funds for myself. The situation for me is appalling now. I am still at home while others have started the studies on 10th january,2011.

I am an orphan by father and mother, and live with my two brothers who are also students. Our parents left us without any other fortune that could help us survive. In fact, in the past three years of university I have been living on the Government loan (bursary) to pay for my living, accommodation and syllabuses (notes). Now that the government has stopped that loan (bursary), I don’t know how I will be able to finish my studies, but I hope to find someone to support me.

- Personal notes:
I’m living in a big poor family of twelve persons (7 sisters. 2 young brothers, father, mother and me). My father is 73 years old and my mother is 50. My five young sisters are students in primary school and other two abandoned the school due to the lack of money and they are now cultivators. My two young brothers are too young to go to school. The living condition of my family is difficult. The family relies on agriculture which is not enough to help a such big family due to the lack of the sufficient field to cultivate (the land of the family is below 100m2).

I am the eldest of the family of seven children and my parents are cultivators on small land, they do also low trade for getting food and school fees for my young brothers. Actually I am in the second year of general medicine in National University of Rwanda. In this university; I am the active member of RVCP in its program of HIV-AIDS and awareness. In addition to this fact, I have to study seven years; what my family can’t sustain unless my young brothers do not even attend the secondary school. As result I apply for financial support for the continuation of my university study after that the government has stopped all it was giving to us as loans for accommodations and food.

- Personal notes:
My names are Dominique Savio Mukunzi. I am a third boy in a family of 4 children, three boys and one girl. I was born on April 9th, 1984. My parents are alive and old. I belong to a poor family as my parents do not have jobs since the end of genocide. Also one of my old brothers is now in prison since 2003 and the whole family must take care of him. That’s why I even did my secondary school with the help of Italian benefactors as I was studying in minor seminar.
Thus, since the organization in charge of scholarship in Rwanda (SFAR) suspended me for getting the scholarship, I lost the hope of continuing my studies because life in Huye where I am studying at the National University of Rwanda is so hard to afford and expensive especially getting accommodation fees, money for restaurant, books, hygienic materials, clothes, etc. But I still have faith that with the help of God and different benefactors, I will complete my studies.
In everyday life, I like reading books and novels, listening musics especially traditional music and I am interesting in working in team as now I belong to a student organization called Rwanda Village Concept Project (RVCP) where I act as the head of HIV/AIDS Awareness program

Actually I am the general secretary of Rwanda Village Concept Program(RVCP). I was born in south province, Muhanga district , sector Kabacuzi, in village called SHORI. I am a member of six children and I am the oldest of them. My family is so much poor. My parents have not studied , they are agriculture. They are doing hard to feed the family by cultivating on small land that we hold. Since 2000 until 2006, when I was in secondary school, I had a local NGO which helped me to study by giving me school fees and from there they have stopped because it was the program of only secondary school. And by this time, I was sponsored by the government which is becoming to stop their sponsorship.

In secondary schools, I was supported by a volunteer who is not alive. After being informed about your announcement in R-VCP. I decide to write to you in order to help me if possible . I remind you that I am the active member of RVCP since 2009. After being rejected by SFAR during this academic year 2011, I was struggling mainly with these principal problems of the life such as: lack of restoration, accommodation, means for the notes…, especially I wonder what I am going to do since March 2011, because there is no belief of studding in this campus. Moreover; you know that the medical students in Doctorate I , are clerking from Monday to Friday in Hospital (CHUB); thus we cannot find any chance of doing any other businesses for instance: teaching in secondary schools, building the houses…, as well as do these of other departments. In addition, there is no money planed for the clerkship doctorate I. My family is unable to support me continuing the University because of its lowest level of economy. I am available anytime, for any suggestion or information and look forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully

For the situation is getting more and more complicated, I would like to get a help from you as I am remaining with two years to finish my studies.

I am a member of Rwanda Village Concept Project (RVCP), in Pyramid Program. I am one child of the family with the seven people. My family is so poor because my father and mother are both illiterates, rely only on agriculture with a little land, also they do not breed. we live in difficult condition . To get what to eat, to wear is not easy. In secondary school, I got scholar fees from government. It is a reason why, it is difficult, even impossible to me to continue my study because I am not on the list that government (SFAR) will support.

I’m VINCENT NDEBWANIMANA 26 years old male, medical students from National University, I was born in rural area where the health problems were critical including the family planning, unwanted pregnancies and hygiene promotion challenges plus limited income generation almost for all population, although above challenges , I’ve been able to study my secondary school and later I joined the Medical school and where you have to work hard to make it successful with much time in Hospital for practices. When I first joined the University , the Government supported me in terms of scholarship and living fees which currently have been cancelled from last year and my parents are supposed to care a lot about my 5 young sisters, among them one joined the secondary school. When I joined medical school at the same time, I found interesting volunteering students organization Rwanda Village Concept Project( RVCP: www.rwanda-vcp.org), where I become an active member from 2007,the organization vice coordinator in 2009,the organization coordinator in 20010 and currently organization advisor.
