On Friday June 20th 2014, RwandAir commemorated its employees who past away during the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi. This event included a visit to the memorial site of Nyamata and thereafter to 30 families of orphans, widows/ widowers in Murambi community, thanks to Rwandair’s management.
Amongst the activities, Rwandair was able to donate a total of 7000,000 Frws which was used to renovate five houses of the poorest families, bought food stuff and contributed to the up keep of the memorial site. “Like we have always done in past, I re-affirm that our partnership will be an ongoing one to ensure Rwandair impacts lives of the people in Murambi community”, said John Mirenge, CEO Rwandair in his speech.
RwandAir concluded the day at Hilltop Hotel in Remera where all employees of RwandAir met for a moment of testimonies made by the families of former employees of Air Rwanda (former name of RwandAir), representatives from CNLG and FARG, plus heads of police and army from kicukiro district.
The journey was full of emotions and we were more than proud to be part of the “Remember – Unite – Renew” spirit.
