Double the love this Advent
Donate now
This year, our world has seen so many crises and tragedies. Yet, the plight of the Batwa community – a marginalised people in Rwanda, facing brutal discrimination and trapped in a vicious cycle of poverty – is not seen in the headlines.
Your generosity enables us to stand with some of the most vulnerable people in the Batwa community and beyond, and offer access to education, clean water, and sustainable ways to earn a living. And this year, we’re blessed that the first £60,000 that you help us raise will be matched, thanks to a group of our generous, dedicated supporters.
This Advent, put your faith in action by donating to our Appeal, and joining with us in prayer.
Novena of Prayer for the Batwa community of Rwanda
The promise of Christ was delivered at Christmas to a weary world. This Advent, you can join us for nine days of reflection and prayer with our Novena of Prayer. Journey with us in prayerful solidarity for a better world.
Felicien and Sylvie's story

“The fear I carry for my children stems from my deep desire for them to have a better life. Unfortunately, their needs often go unfulfilled."
Without an education, Sylvie worries about her children’s future – that they won’t be able to lift themselves out of poverty.
But, thanks to donations like yours, Sylvie’s children are now attending school – they were gifted uniforms and classroom materials so they can thrive in class alongside their peers.
“The support from SCIAF gives us a glimmer of hope,” Felicien beams, “that our current situation could be improved.”
Double the Love this Advent
Donate today to support the marginalised Batwa community in Rwanda, and others around the world. Thanks to a generous group of supporters, the first £60,000 raised in this appeal will be doubled.
