Huaywasi: Handmade In Peru

Huaywasi formed as a collective effort between several women from Huaycán, Peru and international volunteers working with the Light and Leadership Initiative (LLI), an education based nonprofit. After several years of developing artisan skills and products, seven women are now the face of Huaywasi. Huaywasi women are strong, talented and passionate. We partner with these seven artisans to create beautiful basics and accessories with a Peruvian twist. The artisans are paid fair wages with the ability to be able to work from home on their own time.
