Every Life Deserves Dignity & Opportunity

Without awareness and advocacy, people with Down syndrome in Rwanda too often face stigma and exclusion. Since 2017, RDSO has been changing this story—partnering with health professionals to identify and support individuals with Down syndrome so they can live happy, healthy, and productive lives.

What your gift makes possible

Awareness, Advocacy, and Opportunity

  • Awareness — educate families and communities to replace stigma with understanding.
  • Advocacy — champion the rights of individuals with Down syndrome.
  • Opportunity — create platforms where youth showcase skills and grow independence.

Partnering for Impact in 2025

Belay Global’s Special Projects Fund is walking alongside RDSO to empower youth through:

  • World Down Syndrome Day — amplify voices and celebrate inclusion across Rwanda.
  • Talent4U Program — equip young adults with social and vocational skills.
  • Super Internship — build pathways to real employment and confidence.

Your gift fuels possibility. With your support, young Rwandans with Down syndrome gain the tools, training, and community to thrive — not just survive.

Your generosity opens doors to education, employment, and inclusion.
