Every Misiyo product sold gives one month of health insurance to someone in Rwanda.
Giving back is our purpose, our why and our mission. We're currently supporting over 1,700 people every month with health insurance coverage in Rwanda.
Home Fragrance That Gives Back
Misiyo means 'mission' in the Rwandan language; it's in our DNA and it's been our purpose from the start - to create candles + home fragrance products that feel good and do good.
Since 2010, our founder has personally been volunteering with and supporting a non-profit organization in Rwanda called Irere Foundation and has seen the difference being made firsthand.
By providing health insurance to those in need through this local partnership in Rwanda, everyone we support is able to live a healthier life. We don't believe in handouts; we believe in equal opportunity and raising up those who may need a helping hand.
We believe our everyday choices and the things we enjoy can make a positive difference in the world and be a force for good.
Those supported with health insurance are able to live a healthier life. They are empowered in their education, career and family life, making our world a more beautiful and free place.
Our Partner: Irere Foundation
Founded and run by James + Jackie, Irere Foundation has been working with disadvantaged families, orphans and widows around Rwanda for over 15 years.
Along with providing health insurance, some other programs they run are:
- providing food for those dealing with short term food insecurity
- overseeing farming cooperatives to build community and revitalize local vendor markets
- providing financial aid for education
- training people in vocational skills like sewing and styling hair
