Seven United (SUN) is an organization based in Rwanda that encourages youth to be leaders in service to their community. The organization prioritizes education through service and community engagement: members of SUN are empowered to uplift and create positive change in their communities. SUN also provides access to education for a cohort of young children who could not otherwise afford to attend school. Additionally, SUN has a program known as Future Nation that aims to empower women and provide reproductive health education. We are excited to work with SUN to help them expand the social networks of their young leaders and connect them with the African Diaspora in the United States.
