Adopt- A-Hive
Make a Difference…
This is a great marketing opportunity; it directly and indirectly restores a link in nature that is globally recognized to be under threat, and it contributes to biodiversity and environmental stability. The hives that are used will also be supporting people who are starting SMEs for poverty elevation in community projects. The adopt-a-hive will be rolled out to all regions and major towns in Namibia to save bees, and provide training and research as a collaborative innovation between various sectors. The assistance of the regional representatives of the Beekeeping Association of Namibia and local authorities will identify needs, challenges and opportunities to expand this program.

How:
Make a choice, send a mail as notification to the members@beekeepingassociation and do the payment with the reference of Adopt and the number of choice as reference.
When:
There are bees that have been rescued that are up for adoption already. This can be done for bees that you want removed, or as a sponsor for future removals. Any time is a good time, before during or after any removal. There are so many bees and people already in need of help.
Where:
Anywhere in Namibia can be reached. We have requests for specialist removals throughout the country that are currently not feasible due to the costs of traveling, however with funding we can reach all of Namibia.
