Roofing tiles in Nyange, Rwanda

“Organizing has helped us get out of poverty, ignorance and fear. We used to grow crops but could not feed our kids. Many of us did not have a home. Because of Pr. John, we learned how to make bricks and tiles. Now we have a cooperative. With our new kiln we can make really good tiles to sell.” Mediatrice, Nyange Women’s Cooperative President

This year, the Nyange women completed construction of a kiln and molding shed that make it possible to produce high quality roofing tiles. Next year they will complete the roadside market to attract customers.
