Origin

CHECHE ("SPARK") was launched in 1963 by Fr. Cronenberghs. Initially, he was tasked with looking for ways to give work to idle youth, who had failed to complete secondary school and who had not found employment. He offered workshops and courses in carpentry, mechanics, and construction, preparing highly qualified workers. Six other Jesuits joined Cronenberghs who remained with the program over 50 years.[2]

Current

CHECHE has been listed second among the top schools in Bukavu.[3]
