Our Team
The Team of Root Foundation Germany is currently made up of 8 young volunteers, all of whom have a personal link to the organisation in Rwanda. Some of us volunteered at Root Foundation Rwanda for a whole year, others got in touch with the team and the children during an internship or through personal contacts.
The statutory Board only carries the legal responsibility and sees itself as an equal member in a group of committed volunteers.
