The together partnership is supporting Rwandan businesses that are re-integrating perpetrators and victims back into the economy. They primarily support Ikirezi. This was started by Nicholas Hitimana, harvesting essential oils from Geraniums. They now provide work for around 800 orphans, widows and small farmers. The original founder is Lesley Bilinda, a Scottish nurse who escaped the genocide. Her Rwandan husband did not. She set up a memorial foundation in his memory.
