About Us
Welcome to Friends of Handicap in Rwanda | FHR Since 2006
Friends of Handicap in Rwanda (FHR) is a non-profit organization that operates in Rwanda with a legal personality. Our objective is to help children and youth with disabilities. Areas of service include educational programs, children’s outreach, vocational training, basic sign language training, and gentle teaching program. We focus mainly on villages, including operating districts of Nyagatare, Kayonza, and Gatsibo. Our vice president Elavanie conceived the idea in 2005 and worked with our President, Dominique to put it in action. Operations started in 2006 with a local school for deaf children (UDS).
