OUR STORY
Bproud was founded by Jospin Mugisha and Japhety Ngabireyimana. They are cousins who were born and raised in Kibondo, Tanzania. Jospin's family moved to America after his mother was hospitalized during a robbery. Japhety's family followed one month later. Life in America was supposed to be a relief from war, but their families were thrown into a world of poverty, discrimination, and racism.
HOW WE STARTED BPROUD
We created Bproud with a mission to create a difference in the world. We want every individual to be proud of themself. As full-time college students, Japhety and Jospin endured many challenges while starting Bproud. From shipping delays to design constraints.
