The Social Impact You Help Us Create

Every piece you buy is more than art — it’s a lifeline.

At Iyawe Art Collection, our mission goes beyond creativity. We are not just artists — we are builders of dreams, keepers of culture, and carriers of hope. Every handcrafted piece you purchase fuels a movement that uplifts underserved youth, supports struggling families, and preserves Rwanda’s beautiful soul.

But how? Your purchase powers real change.

When you buy from Iyawe, a portion of your payment goes directly to our Social Impact Fund — a community-driven initiative dedicated to providing essential support for vulnerable youth and families in Rwanda. For just $3, you help us provide 1 year of health insurance (Mutuelle de Santé) to a child or a parent in need. A share of every sale goes towards paying school tuition for underserved youth, helping them stay in school, dream bigger, and create brighter futures. Your support also covers basic essentials, such as school supplies, hygiene kits, and meals — creating stability where there was once struggle.

Meet the Heartbeat Behind the Art

Behind every brushstroke, stitched design, and carved sculpture lies the hands of a young Rwandan artist with a dream — not just to be seen, but to make a difference. Your purchase doesn’t just showcase their talent to the world — it fuels a cycle of empowerment. We invest in our artists, share profits with our creative team, and pour resources back into their communities. Every shirt you wear, every necklace you gift, every home décor piece you treasure — it all becomes part of a greater story: one of resilience, community, and hope.

Why It Matters

Healthcare is not a luxury — it’s a right. Education is not a dream — it’s a path. Art is not just decoration — it’s transformation. With Rwanda’s Mutuelle de Santé program, just $3 covers a full year of healthcare for someone who might otherwise go without. That’s a chance for a mother to see a doctor. A chance for a child to be treated for illness before it becomes life-threatening. A chance for dignity, wellness, and life. You are not just buying art. You are joining a movement.

Be the Reason Someone Smiles Today

When you wear Iyawe, you wear more than fashion — you wear hope. When you gift Iyawe, you give more than beauty — you give opportunity. When you support Iyawe, you stand for more than art — you stand for impact. Let every piece you own tell a story — not just of Rwandan creativity, but of the lives you’ve touched and the future you’ve helped build.

Join the movement. Make art. Give hope

Proudly Made for You. Proudly Made in Rwanda.
