OUR STORY
BORN FROM A LEGACY. BUILT FOR GENERATIONS.
Every great legacy begins with something that refuses to fade.
YB Foundation carries forward the spirit and vision of Yvan Buravan, using the power of music, culture, and community to create meaningful change.
We believe healthier lives should be within everyone's reach, no one should face cancer alone, and every young person deserves to know their roots while feeling free to shape their future.
From standing with families affected by cancer to celebrating Rwandan identity and creating opportunities for young people, we turn these beliefs into action.

A STORY THAT MATTERS
WALKING WITH EMMANUEL.
Emmanuel is a child from Bugesera, recently diagnosed with cancer. Through Turikumwe, we are helping cover his medication, his transport to treatment, nutritious food and emotional support for him and his family.
He is also why we keep fighting the myths. Cancer is not a curse, and a diagnosis is not the end. Timely care changes outcomes.
Every child deserves care. Every family deserves support. Every journey deserves hope.
