Willkommen Visitors!
On Thursday, November 13, 2025, we were deeply honored to welcome Janine, Jeanne, and the team from 1000 Hügel (Germany) on their first visit to Blessing School for the Visually Impaired (BSVI).
They came with warm hearts to learn about our mission and explore a possible partnership. Their compassion and interest in our children touched us deeply. We are truly grateful for the time they spent with our learners and staff — a visit filled with hope and encouragement.
BSVI family is excited for the work
the Lord is doing through you

Dear Jessica Rombach,
​
On behalf of Blessing School for the Visually Impaired (BSVI) in Musanze, Rwanda, I extend our heartfelt gratitude to you and your friends for donating 147 canes. Your generosity will greatly enhance our children’s mobility and orientation, helping them move safely and confidently.
​
Your kindness brings light, hope, and opportunity to every child at BSVI. The entire BSVI family and I deeply appreciate your support and compassion.
With sincere thanks,
Bosco
For the BSVI Fraternity
Welcome African Joy
October 27, 2025
​
Today BSVI had a surprise visitor, Janet Kopponi and her hearing dog African Joy, also called AJ!
​
Janet told us she rescued AJ from the streets in Kigali when she saw a group of people mistreating her. She found a rescue to take care of her in Rwanda and went back home, but she couldn't leave her in Rwanda! Janet had AJ brought to California.
Once AJ got to California Janet began her training and she became a certified hearing dog.
​
Thank you for the visit Janet, and showing us how dogs can work with us to help those with disabilites!
On October 16, 2025, our teachers gathered to celebrate their dedication and love for educating children with visual impairments. Founder Dr. Jean Bosco NTAKIRUTIMANA encouraged them to keep serving with faith and excellence, reminding them that their work honors God and shapes the future.
A day of gratitude, joy, and inspiration!
Thank you teachers!
World Vision Rwanda
​
On October 10, 2025 World Vision Rwanda came and donated white canes to some of the students. We deeply appreciate their support and trust that this partnership will continue to grow and reach even greater levels of impact.
The gift of Friendship
Earlier this month, we had the immense pleasure of welcoming Michele Dudley and her team. Their visit was more than a gesture it was a powerful reminder of the global heart that beats for education and compassionate outreach.
This visit was filled with shared smiles, meaningful conversations, and renewed commitment to creating opportunities for every child regardless of their abilities to thrive.
Thank you, Michelle and team, for your support, your kindness, and for being part of our journey toward a brighter future!
