Year 5 had a very successful trip to the Wellspring Overnight Camp in Wadi El Beit last week. High ropes, Zip wires and other team building activities were enjoyed by all. Teachers were so proud to see so many of our students overcoming their initial fears and taking a risk. The three days of the camp were nonstop and, needless to say, the buses were much quieter on the journey home!

Throwback to the construction of the Wellspring Academy, the school that started our journey in pursuit of quality education for students across Rwanda and beyond! • Beginning its construction in 2005, the Wellspring Academy served as a visionary starting point with the mission of raising up a new generation of empowered servant leaders, serve as a model of quality education, and become a catalyst of hope for the country's future. • Since then, we've built on the momentum and success of the Wellspring Academy, and have moved beyond one school to empower and equip 124 schools across Rubavu and Gasabo! • #TBT #qualityeducation
2018 is here! This year, we're excited to hike steep mountains, ride bikes through rain or shine, traverse flooding rivers, and do whatever it takes to empower children across Rwanda with a quality education. What are you excited for in 2018? #WellspringWednesday

Meet Emmanuel, a key player on our Community Involvement team.⠀ .⠀ "Mobilization is key in changing communities and Wellspring’s program is great at mobilizing parents to be part of their child’s education. Even my own family has benefitted from Wellspring’s techniques."⠀ .⠀ #qualityeducation #goal4 #abcd
It’s time to get excited for the week! We’re motivated by all the kids who display such tenacity and dedication in the face of obstacles to their education. With Wellspring’s school and community training, many of these children are now receiving an education that will empower them for the future, and we’ll keep working until every child has this opportunity. What’s motivating you this Monday? #MondayMotivation

"It is a happy talent to know how to play." --Ralph Waldo Emmerson Taken a few years ago on a visit to one of the schools we work in.

The year is off to a great start for our third cohort of Abundant Leadership Institute students in Rwanda. Mid-January, they were joined by the Rev. Dr. Carson Pue, from Trinity Western University, who delivered an engaging module on strategic planning. As Carson shared from his extensive leadership experience and facilitated stimulating group discussions, students had the opportunity to develop valuable skills and knowledge that can now be applied as they lead and serve in their own contexts. We're so grateful to Carson, and to all those who helped to make this training such a success! #leadership
To shape the future, we must understand where we've come from. On the Vision Trip, we seek to understand Rwanda's past and find out how Wellspring fits into its redemption story. Come with us to experience the ongoing transformation and rebuilding of a nation.
