Our Story

The Foundation embodies our commitment to working with the community to promote health and wellbeing of Rwandan community. Our focus will be on prevention, treatment of gynecological breast and cervical cancers, prostate cancers, neurological fistulas as well as awareness of family planning, prevention of non-births desired by targeting vulnerable groups such as young girls and women with limited means.

The Nyirinkwaya Foundation will provide patient-centred care and a roadmap for our service delivery over the next years to come. Within our plan there are a number of strategic objectives, each with supporting strategies to put those objectives into action. The Foundation provides a professional, inclusive and engaged approach to care and that of our new vision ‘Caring for our communities becoming healthier together’.

Notably Rwanda has a growing population and an increased incidence of chronic disease are among our greatest challenges. At the core of our strategic plan, however, is our commitment to meet these and other challenges by supporting the vulnerable groups through awareness campaign and conferences to keep the population well informed on how to live healthier lives. The foundation seeks to provide service delivery innovation across wide geographic areas in Rwanda closing the gap in health outcomes. We believe this will see improvement on the safety and quality, and on enabling vulnerable communities and partners to have a voice through positive engagement.

As we start this new journey we reflect on the past but look forward to an improved healthcare in our communities. The Board and the Executive team are committed to working with our community to provide integrated and patient-centred services, using this plan through Nyirinkwaya Foundation. We are committed to making a difference in rural and regional healthcare. It is a pleasure to share Nyirinkwaya Foundation Strategic Plan with you all.
