Our Bees Project
Beekeeping in rural Kenya is helping families lift themselves out of poverty. The honey produced can be used for their personal consumption and can also be sold to raise an income for the family.
Members of IcFEM Kenya are already sending their children to school and improving their livelihoods with just a few beehives. We want to empower more families to be able to do this.
How it works
1. Beehives are purchased for the family. They are produced in-house by IcFEM Kenya meaning that, not only are farmers provided with beehives, but we are creating employment opportunities too.
2. Families are given the necessary training and mentoring from other local farmers to ensure they have the best chance of success.
3. A repayment plan is set up with the families to encourage them to pay a percentage back into the project once their beehives are making a profit. This can be paid either in honey or in cash and allows IcFEM Kenya to produce more beehives for other farmers.
4. Families are free to use their profits in any way they choose. This allows them to send their child to school, perform essential maintenance on their homes or simply increase their available income and become more financially independent.
How you can help
All donations will go to the continued work of this project. Thank you so much for your generosity.
