PROJECT: Esther's Aid is a non-profit organization started in Rwanda in 2000 to rehabilitate and
educate the orphans/vulnerable girls across the board. We believe that people can improve their lives when they have access to
resources that would provide them with the necessary skills, knowledge and
tools to work with. Esther's Aid has created a Kitchen where young girls are trained in basic
catering skills, and we have come to the stage of packaging our own products
from our demonstration kictchen in Kigali - Rwanda, which include:
BREAD, ASSORTED TYPES OF COOKIES, AND LOCAL SNACKS. There is demand from offices, schools, shops and special events orders. We need
to package these simple consumable products before we supply our customers.
