Income Generating Projects
The Nasio Trust employs over 50 people in Mumias and Musanda who work on a variety of income generating projects, including:
- Sustainable agriculture
- Bee keeping
- Spirulina production
- Fish farming
- George Mudenyo Kadima Medical Centre
- Guest House
These income-generating projects, the cornerstone of our initiative, are managed and operated by the community, creating employment opportunities for local residents. While produce is currently sold locally, the long-term vision is for these projects to achieve self-sufficiency.
Did you know?
Spirulina, whilst being an excellent source of nutrition for malnourished children, has become a popular superfood. One of our supports Helen Peacocke kindly produced the ‘Green Power’ spirulina cookbook which is being sold online to again raise funds for The Nasio Trust.
We are currently in the process of building a second spirulina greenhouse, and making the transition from inorganic to organic spirulina, with the help of Oxford University interns. Find out more about Spirulina production.
