Story
By training them in the art of beekeeping & the production & marketing of honey, we’ve helped hundreds of impoverished women in rural India become self-sustaining village entrepreneurs with increased household income, a greater level of respect within their communities and a brighter future. Sweet, right?
We need YOUR help to reach more women & help them lift themselves out of a life of poverty & dependency.
Salma from Chandaka Forest in Odisha took part in our original Madhu (Honey) project & was able to sell her honey at the local market, helping her send her younger siblings to school & give her mother access to much-needed healthcare. Investing in women has wider benefits for the family.
She said: “I am so happy that I am now able to help my family. With any extra money, I want to buy more hives”.
We know the project works. We’ve already identified villages & women that desperately need our help. Please give the sweetest gift & help us make it happen!
