I felt a heavy burden on my shoulders every morning; I had just given birth to my daughter Ga\u00eblla, and life seemed to be suffocating me. My nights of sleep had become a nightmare, thinking I wouldn't see the light of the next dawn. The early hours of the day always started with despair. I had confused my grave with my reason to live until I met Madame Claudette Nduwayezu, ... the good Samaritan for me.     <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was sitting, with my daughter, on a piece of cardboard under the scorching sun, waiting for a miracle that could happen in the heart of anyone who would have pity on my begging condition. That morning, in Kigobe, luck smiled upon me. I wandered as usual in search of a 'Boss' who could give me some change to buy a biscuit for my crying daughter. I saw, like a light in my life, Mrs. Claudette, also known as 'Tantine,' coming towards me, making small gestures to my little girl, and from that moment, I understood that I had just encountered my guardian angel (\u2026) My name is Jocelyne Akimana, I am married and the mother of two children, Ga\u00eblla and Chadrack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The luck of some people is not understanding what misery really is. Not only did I live it, I touched it, and it had almost become my friend. Misery followed me everywhere, accompanied me, and sometimes it was ahead of me waiting for me. I would wake up in the morning, not knowing where to go, whom I would meet, where I would end up, yet I would get up, hoping that the day would hold surprises for me. The nights were more painful and longer than my days and often on an empty stomach. I had almost reached rock bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Claudette introduced me to the Kigobe Training Center where she had initiated a program for teaching agro-food transformation techniques to young people and women, primarily targeting single mothers and vulnerable mothers, before opening a new center in Gihosha a year later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My entry into the Center marked the beginning of a new story for me. Mother Ga\u00eblla, who had nothing to eat, spent long days wandering the streets of the capital, had just landed a job (...) Since then, I wake up every day to go to work, and I benefit from the hearty meals provided at work for me and my two children, in addition to the income I receive as compensation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
