About Us
We are a small group of volunteers based in the UK passionate about investing in Christian leadership education in Burundi for holistic development.
We do this in partnership with the Bujumbura Christian University (BCU) through promoting fundraising initiatives to support students at BCU passionate about sharing the gospel and community development, but without the means to study. We also fundraise to support the provision of Christian leadership conferences and training in partnership with BCU.
BCU opened in 2015 with a faculty in Theology, celebrating their first cohort of Theology Graduates in 2019. BCU has since opened new faculties: Faculty of Administration and Communication, and more recently in 2023, Economics and Management Studies; and Computer Science and Technology. 'Bujumbura Christian University supports the spiritual and social harmony and development of Burundi by training and equipping its future leaders, pastors and administrators by Christ-centred teaching.' (www.bcu.edu.bi).
The staff at BCU are committed and passionate about delivering the best training at BCU. Scroll below to hear more about their vision for BCU.
We hope you will join us in being part of what God is doing in Burundi - it is both encouraging, challenging and inspiring!
