Good News for Peace and Development – Rwanda (GNPDR) is a faith-based organization committed to restoring hope and dignity, promoting social justice, and strengthening vulnerable communities across Rwanda. We envision a country of hope where basic human rights are respected and peace upheld. Rooted in Christian values of repentance, forgiveness, reconciliation, and service, GNPDR exists to alleviate human suffering and enhance social justice for marginalized people by providing renewed hope to the hopeless and a voice to the voiceless.

Partnership is central to GNPDR's mission of creating lasting transformation in Rwanda. International partners play a critical role in expanding our reach and strengthening the impact of our programs.
Our long-standing relationships with local communities, correctional institutions, and faith networks allow us to work effectively with some of the most marginalized populations.
GNPDR addresses the spiritual, emotional, psychological, and socio-economic needs of beneficiaries. This integrated model creates sustainable change rather than short-term relief.
Our programs intentionally serve individuals and groups that are often overlooked, including prisoners, genocide widows, street-connected children, and people experiencing trauma.
In a country still healing from the legacy of the 1994 Genocide, our work contributes to strengthening reconciliation, social cohesion, and peaceful coexistence.
We are committed to responsible stewardship of resources and transparent program implementation that delivers measurable impact for the communities we serve.
By partnering with Good News for Peace and Development – Rwanda, you become part of a shared mission to restore hope, rebuild lives, and strengthen peaceful communities. Together, we can empower vulnerable individuals, foster sustainable development, and create lasting change for future generations across Rwanda.
