About

Why ReturnSafe exists

A missing person report usually reaches only the people nearby — on paper, by phone, on social media. ReturnSafe puts one case in front of the whole public instead: a family files a report, our team reviews it, and once approved it's a page anyone can see and a poster anyone can print.

How ReturnSafe works

Step one

A family files a report

Someone close to the missing person creates an account and submits what they know — description, last known location, photographs.

Step two

Our team reviews it

A 2,000 RWF posting fee covers administration, and every report is checked by a person before it goes live.

Step three

The case is published

The notice appears on the public register, and can be printed as a poster to put up locally.

Step four

The public reports sightings

Anyone can send in a sighting, anonymously if they prefer. The family gets an SMS the moment one arrives.

No. If someone is in immediate danger, contact the police directly — use this register to reach the public, not to raise an alarm.

Have you seen someone on this register?

You do not need to be certain, and you do not need an account. An uncertain sighting reported is worth far more than a certain one kept to yourself.
