Handcrafting new beginnings for refugee women
MAYA Collection
Maya Collection is a non-profit ministry that inspires and equips refugee women to use their God-given talents to thrive as artisans in their local community. Through neighborhood outreach, we provide encouragement, training, mentoring and employment opportunities for women and teens.

One of a Kind Designs
Due to the unique way in which our ministry sources fabric and utilizes donated sample pieces, many of our purses and bags are the only one of it’s kind, making each piece completely unique. Each bag is handmade in our South Louisville Studio by local refugee and international women.
Creating Opportunities For Local Refugee and international women
Each piece of jewelry is made by hand by one of our artisans. Each week artisans learn new skill sets that enable them to earn income and be in community with other refugee and international women.
Empowering teen girls through Lotus Collection
Lotus Collection is our youth branch of Maya Collection that meets weekly with our team of mentors and volunteers who share love and encouragement with them. Lotus teens are taught jewelry-making skills so they can provide extra income for their families. They are taught prevention and safety awareness as well as how to set goals for their future. The goal is to provide a safe space for the girls to build relationships, learn about God’s love and be empowered to reach their dreams.
