For every three (3) Ugandans that make it out of poverty, two (2) fall back in. To reduce poverty and promote shared prosperity - increased agriculture production and growing non-farm self-employment have to occur. Boon is working to achieve this through implementing sustainable agriculture programs and helping to bring by-product development trade skills that inspire innovation, and create more businesses and job opportunities for women, young adults, and entire communities.
Meet Our Villages
As of September 27, 2023, BOON has launched projects in three different regions, reaching 51 villages so far. Click on the villages below to see what we have been up to!
One of our first villages we connected with and trained!
This village was split by the government to be able to better account individuals living there. You will see this scenario in others we trained.
The word got out from our Namiguwa training day, so we had a bit show up in this village.
While we don't have favorites we definitely loved our time here getting to know this village and training them!
Our local Ambassador, Charles Mukwaya lives in this village!
This is where our corporate offices are located and where our leadership teams and communities gather! Home to our first church plant too!
