In communities like Bukuy­a Sub-County, opportunity can feel distant for many young people. Yet every day at HONU, we see something different — we see potential. We see young mothers learning tailoring and immediately imagining a future where they can support their children. We see young men discovering carpentry and realizing they can build something meaningful with their own hands. Skilling is more than teaching a trade; it’s restoring confidence, dignity, and purpose.

Our vocational programs are built on one belief: when people are equipped with practical, marketable skills, they have the power to transform their own lives. Many of our trainees go on to open small businesses, join savings groups, or support each other in creating new opportunities. The change may begin in a classroom, but its impact spreads to families, neighbors, and the entire community. At HONU, we are committed to growing these programs because we have seen the proof — empowerment works, and self-reliance is possible.
