In many rural communities, opportunities for a reliable income are scarce. That’s why we’ve introduced beekeeping as a practical and empowering way for families to provide for themselves.

With simple training and ongoing support, local people learn to care for bees, harvest honey, and sell it within their communities. What starts as a single hive can quickly grow into a sustainable source of income, creating hope and independence.

Seeing the first jars of honey sold brings joy and confidence — a tangible reminder that change is possible when people are equipped and empowered. By starting their own businesses, beekeepers are creating a brighter future for themselves and their communities.

To support this work, we’ve launched our own honey label, “Daren”, and currently produce around four tonnes of honey per year. Through microloans, we have already created several full- and part-time jobs, giving families a lasting way to support themselves.
