Hives Save Lives aim to alleviate poverty in Africa by creating livelihoods, providing employment and generating income through beekeeping. Hives Save Lives provide practical support in the form of hives, training and equipment, delivered directly to those who need it most. Communities marginalised by poverty are trained and equipped to earn viable and sustainable income at household level through the sale of honey and other hive products. They work with non-governmental and registered community building organisations, such as farmers’ cooperatives, rural development organisations, youth projects, schools, and women’s groups and provide a package of support which includes a 7-day training course and equipment for 2 people for every 20 hives taken by the beneficiary project. At the same time, crop production is increased through the pollination activities of the bees, and the health of the community is improved by the nutritional and medicinal properties of the hive products.
