Beekeeper Parade Makeup Bag Large - Black

the brand story:

BEEKEEPER IS A SOCIAL BUSINESS HATCHED BETWEEN A BROTHER (KOKY) AND SISTER (SOPHIA) IN 2012 WHILE SOPHIA WAS IN HOSPITAL FIGHTING CERVICAL CANCER.  

"It was with the heaviest of hearts that we experienced the loss of Sophia on the 15th of August 2012, after an 18 month battle. We still feel her absence with such acute rawness. In her will, she left her car to her brother Koky, with instructions to sell it and use the money to create a business that would inspire change and help support the continued work of BabyTree Projects, a charity they founded together to fight for children’s rights and to bring quality education to the doorsteps of children in rural Cambodia.  

Since that time, Koky has dedicated his life to making sure that he keeps his promise to his sister. To this end Boy & Bee was born in 2012, and in 2014 we decided to change the name to BeeKeeper. And the Sophia Saly School was built in 2014, in a coastal village right near the sea. Koky recruited a team of talented individuals to help him grow the BeeKeeper hive.  Big bee introductions must go to his merry band of keepers. Anthony Guardabascio (brand keeper), Lana Sadie Laham, Lachlan McIntosh, Theodore Buscemi, Laura Abela, V-ann Tan and Costa Theodorakopoulos."
