The Salama Foundation's journey began in 2009 with a heartfelt commitment to philanthropy, promoting responsible communication, and disseminating information in Burundi, the Great Lakes region, and the East African community. Established by the late honorable Dr. Mohamed Rukara, a visionary and dedicated advocate for positive change, the foundation has tirelessly worked towards fostering social justice and community development.

As a testament to Dr. Rukara's enduring legacy and commitment to philanthropy, the foundation continues to thrive under the stewardship of his children. They have embraced the values instilled by their esteemed parent, ensuring that the Salama Foundation remains a beacon of hope and a catalyst for positive transformation.

We invite you to become part of this mission and join us in building a more just society. Your support will contribute to the continuation of Dr. Rukara's noble vision, empowering communities, and making a lasting impact on the lives of those in need. Together, we can carry forward the legacy of compassion, progress, and positive change that defines the Salama Foundation.
