Fostering Unity, Empowering Communities
Welcome to Jawii Village, a heartwarming haven nestled in Iwo, Osun State, Nigeria—a community that thrives under the nurturing guidance of the remarkable social entrepreneur, Olubunmi Ayegbajeje, affectionately known as @Oloriijeje.
In 2016, Olorii JeJe embarked on a profound journey back to their roots, a calling that sparked the creation of Jawii Village. What began as a spiritual quest soon blossomed into a tight-knit community where connections were forged both over the internet and through heartfelt phone calls, reuniting with those left behind. Olorii JeJe's exposure to diverse cultures illuminated a profound truth—they discovered that the solutions to life's challenges reside within us.
Empowerment became the cornerstone of Jawii Village, inspiring the community to believe that they can achieve anything they set their minds to. The ancient art of bead-making, a cherished tradition of the Yoruba people, became more than a craft; it transformed into a lifeline for Jawii Village, providing not just income but also shelter, sustenance, and survival for the extended family.
As we approach the beginning of 2024, Olorii JeJe's physical presence beckons, temporarily pausing the bead-selling venture. Seize this opportunity to explore our exclusive bundles at unprecedented discounts of up to 70%, a chance to adorn yourself with the beauty of Yoruba craftsmanship.
But Jawii Village's story doesn't end here. In 2024, we embark on Phase Two of Project Jawii, taking a giant leap towards self-sufficiency. With your unwavering support, we aspire to not only strengthen our community in Iwo but also showcase the richness of Yoruba land—its language, culture, and traditions—to inspire youth worldwide.
Our goal extends beyond borders; we envision Jawii Village becoming a haven that warmly embraces not only local citizens but also kindred spirits from the diaspora. Join us on this transformative and healing journey, as we strive to make Jawii Village a beacon of unity, resilience, and cultural pride. Your support has laid the foundation, and together, we'll build a future where roots are not just remembered but celebrated.
