We work closely with artisan groups and individuals to bring our handcrafted products to you. Most of our suppliers come from rural, poverty stricken areas. We hope you love their products as much as we do!

UBUZIMA BUSHYA IWACU I MUNAZI
Meaning ‘our new life life in Munazi village’, this group is based in Kivumu, Kamonyi district. It is made up of four men and four women who work together to supply our cleaned and rendered beeswax as well as all of our hand-dipped candles. We’ve been working with them since the beginning and things are going well. With the money from candle making, members of the group have made home improvements, installed solar power kits in their homes, purchased health insurance and started animal rearing micro-enterprises.
EJO HEZA
Meaning ‘Tomorrow will be better’ this group is based in Kivumu, Kamonyi district. It is made up of seven beekeepers who work together to produce beehives, keep bees and in time sell their honey to us. Whilst we await our first harvest, ‘Beeutiful Creations’ with the help of our partner NGO Ubuzima Bwiza Iwacu have been training them in beekeeping and hive management.
