%X The main objective of this research was to assess the effect of Nyamirambo Women Center (NWC) on welfare of women in Rwanda. This study had the following specific objectives: to find out the contribution of different trainings given to the women on their welfare, to examine the role of employment opportunities offered by Nyamirambo Women Center to women on improving their welfare and examine the contribution of vocational training on women¡¯s welfare. The documentary method, primarily questionnaires and interviews were used for data collection. The collected data were then recorded, presented, and analyzed by using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences. Results show that 64.3% of the total variation in women¡¯s welfare is caused by different training offered by NWC. R coefficient of 0.802 indicates a strong positive relationship between different trainings and women¡¯s welfare of NWC. R square of 0.608 means that variation in women¡¯s welfare of NWC is caused by employment opportunities. R coefficient of 0.724 indicates a strong positive relationship employment opportunities and women¡¯s welfare of NWC. R-square in this study is 0.672 means that the proportion of women¡¯s welfare (dependent variable) is explained by the independent variable (vocational training) at 67.2%. It was found that the NWC has made significant contributions towards women¡¯s welfare in the area through the provision of education, vocational training and employment opportunities to its beneficiaries. Nevertheless, NWC should continue to look for other donors for expanding approaches to support a big number of women in community who need its support for their socio-economic development.
