    Bringing color to a new space

    Brightening Up a Safe Space

    Today’s Changemaker 365 idea comes from the brilliant and human centered mind of Gerald Bizimana. Gerald was the winner of an Alight competition that resulted in him being awarded a Changemakers 365 implementation! Gerald wanted to use our value Do The Doable to guide his idea.

    Gerald came up with the amazing idea of painting the Nyabiheke SGBV safe space with Alight murals and encouraging colors so that those who were in the space could feel safe and at home. The team got right to work to paint the murals! After a hard day of painting, the space was finished and looked amazing!

    “I’m so excited and amazed by this work and I’m thankful for winning the Changemaker 365 projects which allowed me to accomplish my project as a Winner of ALIGHT Challenge 2020,” said Gerald. Great idea Gerald and way to make this space shine!
