LWF provides education and job opportunities to Congolese refugees

Hawa Andrew has the most beautiful house in Rwamwanja refugee settlement, Uganda.

That at least is the opinion of her family, who lives with her, and of course of the person who constructed it: Hawa Andrew herself. The 18-year-old Congolese refugee obtained a builder’s certificate after receiving a scholarship from The Lutheran World Federation (LWF).
