Our MISSION
GI Rising is a US 501(c)(3) charitable organization dedicated to reducing the burden of gastrointestinal and liver disease in Rwanda by providing
expertise, training and resources. Our goal is to develop local academic and community-based leaders.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, leadership from the RSE created the Gastrointestinal Charity Digestive Clinic, in the capital city, Kigali. The clinic services patients in the lowest socioeconomic classification (mutual) who would be unable to receive GI care in a timely way (if at all), without the clinic. The equipment, instruments, and devices used at the clinic were donated by GI Rising. Each year, a portion of the grants and funding raised for REW through GI Rising are given to the Charity Clinic to support their mission serving patients in need.
