OUR FOUNDER.


Iréné MIZERO, the founder of Mizero Care Organization, is a Rwandan who was born on 25th November 1985, in Ngororero district, Ngororero Sector, Western province. In the aftermath of the 1994 Genocide Against the Tutsi and afterwards, MIZERO suffered harshly due to the consequences of the 1994 Genocide Against the Tutsi.

He experienced adverse impacts of isolation, loneliness and frustration. Nevertheless, by the grace of God, through prayers and counsels from friends and peers, MIZERO came out of that state. Today, he’s regained strength and hope for a bright future.

On 29th July 2012, Iréné MIZERO gathered three people, as a symbol of recognition, for the paramount role they had played during his long way from isolation. The event was marked by the remittal of awards to one of those people. His unfortunate experience of isolation, along with his painstaking journey out, led him to streamlined thoughts about others who may be experiencing similar socio- psychological conditions.

Thus the decision to create an organization called Mizero Care Foundation (MCF), whose main purpose is to assist people facing isolation and loneliness in their respective home milieus, especially youth in as far as the organization is concerned. In the pursuit of legal personality was named Mizero care Organization abbreviated as MoC
