Welcome ! Everyone who is connected to Vi Bella is part of a greater mission to share Christ’s love by transforming lives and the earth. At the heart of our mission, Vi Bella empowers individuals and communities by breaking the cycle of extreme poverty through life changing employment. Vi Bella hires and trains artisans who create beautiful, unique works of art. Many of the materials used by the artisans are recycled or locally sourced from sustainable materials, insuring that our earth is cared for as well. We invest all profits back into the artisans’ communities, bringing the transformation full circle. Vi Bella spreads love and fellowship across cultures by providing a sense of purpose that rejuvenates once-tattered lives. You’re not just purchasing a piece of Vi Bella, you’re helping to create beautiful lives. The money raised with your fundraiser will not only support your local fundraiser but will also support the women who make the jewelry and their families.
Blessings!
LOVE mercy

children and are not faced with the heart-wrenching decision to bring them to orphanages.
“Together we sold more than $14,000 in jewelry! Our group was able to use the funds raised to provide scholarships, financial assistance, and support to mothers in our community. It was such a wonderful feeling to raise support for local moms while knowing that we were also equipping women in Mexico and Haiti to be the moms they were longing to be for their children.”
In Mexico, our artisans have steady work right there in their village, with after-school programs and Bible studies that bolster relationships. All of our artisans have newfound self-confidence and are proud they can provide for themselves, their families, and others in their communities in ways

Lydia Lee. A PLAYGROUND FOR HAITI Eleven year old Lydia Lee wanted to raise $5,000 for a playground in Haiti, and a Vi Bella fundraiser was the perfect answer. Her dream became a reality by simply reaching out to friends and family to sell Vi Bella jewelry.
