For us, this is Step 1 to opening the country.
After three months of not moving around, our kids did Umuganda (cleanup day) inside the compound.
They loved being outside and roaming around. There was not much to pick up as school has not been in session. Just a fun day.
Although the country has not yet taken steps to have a national cleanup day, it seemed a good idea inside the village.
Umuganda is a national day for citizens to keep Rwanda clean. This is held the last Saturday of every month. It was put on hold when the coronavirus struck and such activities were discontinued. I am sure this is temporary.
Finishing the month of May with a day to work together was great as the university students returned to Kigali June 1. We miss them.
University students joined Claude, Soso and Claudine in a cleanup event.
