The Mission

Abahizi Rwanda is our On Purpose supplier based in Masoro, Rwanda. An independent, employee-owned handbag manufacturer, the supplier employs more than 250 women from the community, providing them full-time employment, health benefits and access to a life skills education program. As a certified B Corp grounded in holistically empowering women, Abahizi Rwanda is a true social enterprise. Abahizi Rwanda makes our On Purpose collection every season.

The Community: Masoro

We know how important it is for long-term, sustainable impact, to invest not only in women, but also in their families and communities. We’ve integrated Abahizi Rwanda into our regular supply chain, and are investing in the supplier’s larger community of Masoro. To date, our On Purpose fund has invested in community projects such as rebuilding the local health center, constructing a sports and learning center, and helping create entrepreneurship training, dance and basketball programs for women and girls. Abahizi Rwanda is one of our numerous partners around the world.

Holistic Empowerment

The individual women who work at Abahizi Rwanda have access to mental health support. We also support the larger community of Masoro by investing in local health infrastructure through funding for community girls’ clubs and yoga for trauma programs.
