Giving Back
JustNeem envisions a flourishing African continent. We believe that all human beings have the right to support themselves and their families through work. Therefore, we are partnering with like-minded NGOs (non-governmental organizations) that work with villagers in Mauritania, West Africa, to discover local resources and to establish economic opportunities for the local people.
One of these resources, the Neem tree, can be used to generate income for families simply by planting the tree and selling its leaves and fruit. It has the additional benefit of giving shade in a hot desert climate and offering its medicinal benefits to the tree owner’s family.
In collaboration with local NGOs, we help create jobs centered around this tree. With proceeds from our soap sales, we fund the planting of Neem trees in neighborhoods surrounding Nouakchott.
We travel to Mauritania on a regular basis to visit our partners there. We also receive photo updates from them that we post on our blog. Read about our recent trips and see photos, such as the ones of the women who received the first Neem trees in Mauritania.
