In this project, we partner with Centenary Bank to train youth and provide starter packs—beehives, coffee, and tree seedlings, and ongoing mentorship support for participants. Our goal is to restore degraded land through nature-based enterprises that create dignified work for rural youth.

In Wokukiri Village (Mbale District), we delivered a practical, finance-linked restoration package to 100 young people. Following training in coffee agroforestry and access to finance, youth groups received:

• 80 Kenya Top-Bar (KTB) beehives
• 20,000 coffee seedlings
• 10,000 multipurpose trees

This collaboration kick-started nature-based livelihoods and opened pathways to inclusive financial services.
