OUR STORY
BORN FROM A LOSS. BUILT FOR GENERATIONS.
Yvan Buravan died of pancreatic cancer in 2022. He was 27, with so much music still ahead of him.
On 4 December 2022, YB Foundation was established to make sure that loss would still do some good. The people who loved him chose to turn grief into action, and his values into a mission: music that unites, culture that grounds, and care for people who are hurting.
OUR GOAL
To ease cancer's toll on Rwandan families through awareness, early detection and practical support, and to give young people the platform to own their culture and their creativity.
OUR VISION
A Rwanda where no one faces cancer alone, and every young person knows their roots and is free to shape their future.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
A healthier community is a stronger community. A generation that knows its roots moves forward with confidence. A real legacy keeps making a difference long after it begins.
That mission runs on three commitments.
Healthier lives.
We champion cancer awareness, prevention and early detection, and we support those fighting the disease.
Stronger cultural roots.
We celebrate Rwandan music and heritage so young people can stand tall in who they are.
Limitless futures.
Campaign aimed at raising public literacy and understanding around cancer
