Who we are

A community-driven organisation, rooted in Drieziek.

We help women and our Drieziek community grow their own food and learn real skills to build a better life. We are great at teaching farming and business skills that help people stand on their own two feet.

Grace Malange is the visionary founder of Achihera NPC — a community-driven organisation dedicated to empowering women, strengthening families, and creating sustainable livelihoods. Inspired by a deep commitment to uplifting vulnerable communities, she established Achihera to address food insecurity.

We started this because we wanted to bring food, jobs, and pride back to our local community. People come back to us because we treat them with respect and truly care about helping their families succeed.
