Who we are

ASEF is a non-profit organization based in the United States of America that has been providing scholarships to vulnerable yet bright secondary school students in Rwanda since 2007. These students have the promising intellectual capacity yet are in great financial need. ASEF works as an INGO under the Rwanda Governance Board (RGB) and holds 501(c)3 status in the United States.

Our Mission

Our mission is to make a better life possible through education for Rwandan children who do not have the financial means.
