Building Kyavinyonge's 1st Vocational Training Center & Orphanage
The Vocational Training Center is Under Construction!
Mama Cecile's is building the first vocational training center in Kyavinyonge. This center will also house orphans who do not have homes with local families. Imagine a place where every student’s potential is unlocked, where education becomes the key to a brighter future. This center will not only be a place of learning but a haven where dreams take root and grow. By laying these foundations, we’re not just constructing a building; we’re shaping futures, empowering communities, and planting the seeds of change for generations to come. Join us in this transformative mission—together, we can build a brighter tomorrow for families in DR Congo.
Phase 1 - Completed
The design plans were drafted and initiated with the ground level and foundation set. The first level pillars were installed to allow for building the next level.

Phase 2 - In progress
Phase 2 is the most substantial effort and includes all 3 levels of the center. The upper levels will serve as dormitories to care for the orphans who are without homes. The goal is to complete the first level so we can begin hosting classes in the completed sections, while construction continues on the upper levels.
