In Rwanda, Komera means "be strong, have courage". The Komera Project is a leadership incubator in rural Rwanda that invests in young women who have the courage and desire to pursue secondary education but who lack the resources to do so.  

 We believe young women deserve the opportunity to lead positive change in their communities and in our world. We believe that as girls continue their education, they improve their earning potential, their health and their sense of self-worth enabling them to break the bonds of poverty.  

We are addressing this issue by strategically investing in the empowerment of talented young women from underprivileged backgrounds by providing access to high-quality secondary education, personalized mentoring, and leadership development grounded in community service.
