Stawi.

The Stawi Project is a community-based empowerment program by the Athanas Mbele Foundation, designed to support widows' groups through the provision of high-quality fruit seedlings. These seedlings, including varieties suited for local climates, enable widows to start small-scale orchards for both personal and commercial purposes. The project enhances food security, improves household nutrition, and creates a sustainable income stream for beneficiaries. Additionally, it promotes environmental sustainability by encouraging the planting of fruit trees, contributing to reforestation efforts and climate resilience. Stawi is more than an agricultural initiative; it’s a lifeline for widowed women to achieve economic independence and foster community growth..
