welcome to AOG INGENZI
...For Social Entrepreneurs
About Us
Acts Of Gratitude (AOG INGENZI) is a Rwanda-based Social enterprise co-founded by 13 young social entrepreneurs in 2011. AOG is registered with the Rwanda Governance Board (RGB) as a National Non-governmental Organization (NGO) since 2014. Starting in 2015, AOG decided to focus its programs on social enterprise development in Rwanda. That focus enables AOG to tackle youth unemployment and contribute to achieving other SDGs by solving key social challenges in local communities. Another big emphasis is put on women empowerment to make them real drivers of positive change.
OUR IMPACT ARM
We currently have two programs:
Ingenzi Social Enterprise Programme
A 12-session practical training that helps youth (16-30) to turn their ideas into social enterprises ready for funding and implementation. All participants graduate from the program with necessary confidence and five business communication tools: Business Plan, Business Model Canvas, Elevator Pitch, PowerPoint presentation and Theory of change.

We work with individuals and organizations interested in starting and/or strengthening social enterprises for sustainable development. Our popular programs includes: Impact measurement, and Journey to Social Enterprise ( for traditional businesses and NGOs)
