About WAEV
Women’s Agri-Enviro Vision (WAEV) is a non-profit organization in the Arusha region of Tanzania that works with women in rural Maasai communities to create opportunities for individual and community growth. WAEV provides women with tools, resources, and knowledge to lead healthy lives with autonomously directed programs that foster collaboration, community resilience, and sustainable development.
Programs at WAEV:
1) Tree Planting - Each participant receives 20 saplings to plant around her homestead and foundational horticultural training.
2) Microfinance & Entrepreneurship - Every group receives a net sum of $1,000,000 TZS in seed money and bookkeeping classes.
3) Sustainable Gardening - Participants are given the tools necessary to establish vegetable gardens at their homesteads.
