Born in HUYE\/Gishamvu, Southern Province of Rwanda, grew up surrounded by the beauty of traditional, a skill passed down from her mother. What began as a family tradition slowly transformed into a purpose-driven mission.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Raised in a rural village with limited opportunities and strict values, He saw firsthand the struggles of young girls\u2014especially those who dropped out of school and became mothers at a young age. He knew that their challenges were not just personal but part of a much bigger story of lost potential and untapped talent.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Determined to create change, Bosco began teaching weaving to young women in her community. What started as small gatherings with a few girls quickly grew into a movement that restored dignity, hope, and opportunity. From this vision, Intagara handcrafts ltd was born.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Today, INTAGARA Handcrafts supports over 50 young single mothers, with a dream to expand into weaving centres across all 5 provinces and 30 districts of Rwanda, and ultimately across Africa. Through weaving, Intagara preserves culture, empowers women, and creates sustainable futures for families.<\/strong><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
