Support 1000 young mothers with beehives in Uganda

Organization information

SAFEPLAN UGANDA

Location: Masindi, Uganda

Summary

Budongo Women Bee Enterprises (BUWOBE) supplies young mothers in sugarcane-dominated mid-western Uganda with five beehives each to produce honey, increasing their income by up to 60%. Sugarcane fields occupy most arable land, affecting 20,000+ immigrants, including young mothers, who can spend over 10 hours a day working to feed their families. The BUWOBE Cooperative trains the young mothers on less time intensive, eco-friendly honey & byproduct producing skills, and provides access to markets.
