THE BEEHIVE CHILDREN'S FOUNDATION (AFRICA) 

The Beehive works for the relief of poverty amongst young, teen-age, African girls who become pregnant through sexual abuse. Through our sister Kenyan charity, The Beehive Trust, we provide a long-term, family style home with medical care, parental training, counselling, and education or vocational training to enable them to became confident and self-sufficient adults with their child.
