The event comes at a pivotal time for the organization. In 2024, the Initiative was awarded a $1 million USAID grant to support the launch of the Maranyundo Training and Learning Center (MTLC) in Rwanda. But the recent suspension of U.S. government funding to civil society organizations in the region has directly affected Maranyundo’s ability to access those resources.

Team Maranyundo included board members, their families, and friends running to raise awareness and funds for girls’ education in Rwanda.

Ten girls from Maranyundo Girls School in Rwanda formed the Maran Lego Aquaflares and competed in the 2024–2025 First Lego League National Championship. They built a robot to collect plastic waste and created impactful projects like an AI fact-checker and a robotic arm. Though they didn’t win, the experience empowered them with confidence, teamwork, and a vision for change through STEM.
