Graduation

The crowning moment of transition into young adulthood

Graduation - kumĩra - is the culmination of the Riika Program: a ceremony that celebrates the completion of the journey and formally welcomes each boy into the next stage of manhood.

Families gather to witness the ceremony, share in the pride of the moment, and receive their sons back as young men who have grown in discipline, character, and brotherhood.

Each participant receives a certificate of completion, closing out the program while marking the beginning of a lifelong bond with the riika he graduated alongside.
