Mission

Through the handcrafting of products in a variety of enterprises, The BEE Community exists to provide meaningful work and a place of belonging for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. BEE Artisans craft high quality products like soaps, candles, dog treats, stationery and jewelry. We want everyone- regardless of ability and capacity- to experience the dignity and purpose that comes from employment. We believe everyone that has a pulse has a purpose and a divine design to work and contribute.

BEE + Emeralds

Aggie Emeralds chose The BEE Community as its philanthropy in 2018. Over the years, we have watched the organization blossom and continue to transform lives by providing meaningful work. We love to support them in anyway possible, whether it is financially (donations, attending their events, or marketing/selling BEE products) or emotionally (putting together gifts for the artisans or spending time with them during their breaks)!
