BUILDING A TEAMWe have hired a Human Resources Director to recruit, build, and retain a strong Village team.

Agahozo-Shalom marked a pivotal and milestone year in 2012. The Village thrived, functioning at full capacity with 500 kids. We operated with a full complement of programs, engaged highly professional staff to implement them, graduated our fi rst class of students, and developed a system to monitor and evaluate the success of our alumni moving forward.

Born as a response to great tragedy, Agahozo-Shalom has become a place of great hope and joy. Thanks to a dedicated team of Agahozo-Shalom community members, the Village not only makes a difference in the lives of those who live there, but also has a signifi cant impact on the surrounding communities, Rwanda as a whole, and across the globe. Joy is restored, minds are cultivated, dreams are envisioned, and progress is made. The impact is palpable, and will continue to spread as our graduates leave the Village and begin the next phase of their lives. Our graduates are change-

makers who leave the Village gates fi lled with potential, hope, and a belief in themselves, ready to impact the world and share their wisdom, talents, and skills.

These successes remind us how far we and these kids have come, affi rm our efforts, and strengthen our resolve to continue enhancing and evolving the Village.

With ongoing help from our friends, fans, and supporters, the Agahozo-Shalom Youth Village will continue to fl ourish. We believe that our kids have the right to a future with enormous potential—a future that is looking brighter because of the transformational work being done in our Village.

Thank you for joining us in cultivating a brighter future.

LivingFamily Mothers are central to

the successful parenting of our children, ensuring their families are cared for, loved, and supported. Like parents in any family, the mother is

responsible for:

Learning

Healing

Family

Caring for children when they are sick

Teaching each child Tracking

each child’s emotional wellbeing

Monitoring sleep

schedules Providing material

needs

Making sure homework is

completedFollowing academic progress

Encouraging extracurricular

participation

Our kids are learning, through principle and practice, the value of Tikkun Olam, mending the world around them. Our graduates will leave ASYV as balanced adults who not only care for themselves, but are committed to making their community, their country, and their world a better place.

Our ultimate goal is to equip our kids to become healthy, self-suffi cient, and engaged in the rebuilding of their nation. Our programs are designed around Tikkun Halev, helping them grow both emotionally and intellectually. The experiences they accumulate at the Village are intended to help them at every level of their future development.

Formal education gives students the understanding, creativity, and wisdom to tackle the grand challenges that they will face in the future. Critical thinking helps students think for themselves, build confi dence, express themselves, and communicate more effectively.

The informal educational opportunities encompass family/home life, after school enrichment programs and job readiness, professional skill building, and alumni support. Our kids are able to receive the individualized

"parental" attention that is geared toward healing their trauma, building their self-esteem and preparing them to graduate with—and utilize—the skills necessary to forge a healthy and fulfi lling life after Agahozo-Shalom.

Every student at the ASYV is monitored throughout their time in the Village through individual evaluation. Family mothers, big brothers and sisters, long-term volunteers, and formal and informal educators all monitor students’ progress through a continuous process of evaluation that is implemented from the moment they walk through our gates. Our community members are continually assessing and adjusting individual plans so that every student realizes their full potential.

Our Holistic PhilosophyIn their four years at ASYV, our kids are creating new possibilities and opportunities.

ASYV is a place where the rhythm of life is restored, and some of the most challenging problems facing Rwanda (and the world) are addressed by a dedicated team of faculty and staff members.

ASYV is a living, learning, and healing community. Our holistic approach promotes emotional and intellectual growth, practical skills, and a commitment to give back.

Talent shows

Singing& Choir

Science & Languages

Chores at Home

We wake up at 6:00 a.m., do our household chores, and get ready

for school. Walk up the Hill

Once we have chores out of the way and we’re ready to

learn, we walk up a steep hill fl anked by coffee trees and

tiny colorful birds.

Liquidnet Family High School

At the top of the hill, we arrive at the Liquidnet Family High School

and prepare for the day.

Our offi cial school day begins at 7:30 a.m. with a homeroom

check-in with our teachers.

Classes At school throughout

the day, we study many subjects, including:

Economics & Geography

History

Math & Computers

Professional Skills

We also learn specifi c professional skills to ensure

our futures in Rwanda.

Modern Agriculture, IT & Hospitality

LunchWe love school, but by

the afternoon we’re ready for our lunch! We walk down the hill with our friends and eat lunch together with the

entire ASYV community.

Enrichment Programs(1st & 2nd years)

After lunch, our after-school enrichment programs start.

Each term, through enrichment, we learn more about what we’re passionate

about, and what we might want to do with our futures and careers.

In our Science Center, for example, we gain hands-on experience in disciplines

such as physics, optics, electronics, biology and web design.

Football

Piano

Basketball & Volleyball

Singing &Recording

Studio

Job ReadinessWe know that we need to be prepared for the workplace, so we study Akazi Kanoze,

learning important skills like how to prepare for an

interview and write a résumé.

Enrichment Programs (3rd & 4th years)

While the younger kids play sports and learn crafts to

hone their passions, we are pursuing ours with the help of

Professional Skills training.

ClubsBy this time, we’re ready to have

a little fun and care for each other and our community.

Through our 23 clubs, we can all participate in the maintenance

and leadership of our Village. Our clubs offer something for

everyone, with focuses such as:

Village TimeEvery Friday evening, the Village Time Club organizes a gathering of the whole Village community

where we can sit together in the spirit of a real family to share

our talents, refl ect on the week, and discuss Village life.

Family TimeAfter dinner each night we have Family Time. There we share our thoughts, feelings and struggles

and discuss important family issues. Sometimes we just

enjoy laughing and singing and spending our time together.

On Wednesdays we always have debate nights in

our houses.

Every Friday after dinner a dance party is held, DJ’d by ASYV

students.

Mucaka Mucaka

Saturday mornings begin at sunrise as families gather for

our weekly Mucaka Mucaka run, organized by the Sport Club. For 30 minutes we run through the Village and neighboring streets,

singing and chanting.

RecreationIn our free time, we can be found

singing along to the radio, drawing in the Art Center, practicing guitar in the

Music Center, washing clothes, chatting with friends, playing sports, working on homework, borrowing books from the library, learning about our post-

ASYV options at the Student Resource Center, or resting in our rooms. We also organize our own choirs and teach each other music and harmonies that carry

across the whole Village.

Movie NightOn Saturday nights we

watch a movie selected by the Movie Club.

It is very relaxing and a nice change of pace from the

busy week.

Harvesting

Eat BreakfastHalfway between our family

homes and school, we stop at the dining hall/community center

for breakfast in order to fuel our minds and bodies. Sorghum

porridge, tea, and rolls are served each day at 6:30 a.m.

All classes are taught in

English

Modern & Traditional

Art

Tikkun Olam (2nd & 3rd years)

Once a week, we travel to nearby towns to work on service projects. This

teaches us that we have the power to make change and that whatever

we learn during our time at ASYV, we must reinvest in our community, our

country, and our world.

Teaching English to adults

from the local community

Assisting medical staff in the local clinic

Mentoring kids and teaching English

Restoring the rhythm of lifeASYV is fi lled with a bustling community. From the state-of-the-art high school where our kids study to our Health & Wellness, Science, and Art centers and our fully operational farm, we provide an engaging environment for our kids to learn and grow.

Our kids participate in 20 different enrichment programs centered on athletics, hands-on science, and the arts. We also have 23 student-led clubs that both keep our Village running and give our youth a stronger sense of ownership over their community. We have a Job Readiness Program and 3 Professional Skills Training Programs, designed to provide students with the tools they need to enter the job market after they graduate.

An environment where they can prepare for a hopeful future. The result is whole and healthy individuals who, with the help of new families, believe in themselves and learn to make contributions to their community and the world.

In Rwanda, there is hope in the form of a Youth Village. A Village that offers a holistic approach to healing the trauma of vulnerable children, providing them with a warm and loving environment. An environment in which they live, learn, heal, and dream.
