sabelle Kamariza, is the President of Solid Africa—a Non Government Organisation (NGO) that helps vulnerable patients in public health facilities. She is the young Rwandan woman who discovered Esperance Nyiramajyambere with her burnt baby, Niyigema Ndagije at the Central Hospital of Kigali (CHK).

A devout Christian, she was convicted by a minister’s sermon at her church. She was forced out of her, “comfortable seat to go out and do something—anything at all,” she said.

“I went to church and the minister said, ‘How come you pray for the sick people and you don’t care about going to visit them in the hospital.’ And this is where I started from,” Kamariza narrated.

When she visited CHK, she was shocked at the sight of stranded patients.

“There were sick people outside, mostly children and women; some of them had spent two weeks outside without treatment and it was raining. I asked myself, how can we people go back and sleep in our comfortable beds on a soft mattress and just chill out, wake up and spend Rwf1000 for a coke when there are all these sick people sleeping in the cold, right in our neighbourhoods?” she said.

This 25-year-old young woman started raising bits of money, milk and food from her friends, parents and relatives to take to the CHK hospital.
