The Idea is at infant stage, so far we have registered the group. Thre questing for support of school fees. But the boy told me he doesn't want a free support he can do any task I will asign to him. He went to my horticluture farm he saw a lot bees imoving around the flowers. He asked why don't you keep bees there so many in your farm. The second day a lady came to my premises with 10 litres of honey selling at Tzs 7000.00 so she left with Tzs 70,000.00. From that I signed a contract with a carpenter to make 20 beehives, 15 mine and 5 for the boy who lost all parents that was 2019.
The second week of March 2020 I sold my idea to friends of mine to create a beekeeping group with the aim to support orphans and the Idea to support other unemployed Youth came about. so far we have 50 beehives but if we will get support we are planning to have 5 beekeeping house as demonstration and training centre. and facilitate the establishment of 50 youth groups as beekeeper. we will sign a contract with groups to buy their honey. We are planing in 2022 to establish a small High-Tech bees products processing factory.
