About Beija-Flor Projects
About Us
Our name comes from the Brazilian word for a hummingbird, beija-flor (beija = kiss, flor = flower), symbol of new beginnings and endless possibilities. Hummingbirds are light and agile, swift and flexible, versatile and adaptable. They represent joy, beauty, positivity and pleasure. Our aim in our work is to bring these qualities to bear in nurturing and enabling change. What we earn goes back into supporting initiatives that align with our principles and values.
