Loss of Mukiza Rwanbara Alexandre (Alex)
ROC Trust have started a funeral fundraiser to cover the cost of Alex's funeral expenses and to help his family members.
Hamilton, Waikato
Mukiza Rwanbara Alexandre (known to his kiwi friends as Alex) was a young man of 23 when he came to NZ with his family. He had already experienced a life most young men have never had to go through, having spent 10 years in a refugee camp in Rwanda after his family had to flee the Congo in 2009.
Alex's family lost him in Waikato river and its devastating that he became another drowning statistic this summer.
Mukiza was a hard worker, gospel singer, a supporter of his community, and was excited about starting a farming cadetship this year with his kiwi friend Brian.
We want your help to support Alex's family with the funeral expenses as they have very limited means.
