Sunzu Village preschool is our largest expensesupporting 180 students ages 3-6. We provide teachers, books, materials and food for our little ones. Specifically, an Egg-A-Day. Because of this we have become egg farmers to supply enough eggs for each child attending school. We hired a cook to prepare their porridge and eggs. We also give the children fruit. Nutrition has proven to be such a dire need and we are glad to meet that need. We also provide salaries for the Library Director, the preschool head teacher and four other teachers.The Sunzu village library also serves the entire village. Many school children come there in the afternoons and evenings to get books, play games, do science projects, etc. Many adults come for books, community engagement and we offer a gathering space for talks on medical issues, community issues and other learning opportunities. After COVID we have seen a gap in the regular school education and this year have had Reading competitions, science fairs and the opportunity to travel to other provinces to compete in regional academic contests. Perhaps the only time our village children have traveled outside the remote village. Sunzu village population coming to the library each month is about 1,600 people! School fees for Primary and secondary students. The publicly run schools are not desirable, but that is all that is available. But the students are required to pay an insurance fee and often cannot afford to do so. We pay the insurance fee so they may attend. For most of our school support however it is for the Secondary school fees. We send 22 students to Private high schools (as public education stops at 8th grade). These schools require tuition, materials, etc. And most of the time there is travel involved also. These private high schools provide housing, food, and curriculum. It is the best way out of poverty for the students who are willing to work hard, be good citizens in the community and help their families. 189609 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 0 0 false 0 false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 2 0 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false CA X Julie Virjee 3103770709 2 Cinchring Road Rolling Hills CA 90274 X Framroze Virjee CEO 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Julie Virjee Secretary 25.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 0 false false false 0 242004 242004 0 168 168 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 242172 168 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 748 748 0 0 0 0 0 0 Sunzu Church 90027 90027 Sunzu Scholar 56275 56275 Sunzu Village 31200 31200 Catholic Village 12107 12107 2667 2667 193024 189609 3415 0 269300 318447 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 269300 318448 0 0 X 269300 318448 269300 318448 269300 318448 49148 X false false false X 79775 80197 82117 108290 242004 592383 0 0 79775 80197 82117 108290 242004 592383 0 592383 0 0 0 592383 1.00000 1.00000 X Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 2 FRAMOZE VIRJEE THE CEO OF YAMBI RWANDA IS THE SPOUSE OF JULIE VIRJEE THE SECRETARY OF YAMBI RWANDA.
