A group of high profile business people and politicians recently went back to their community in Masvingo rural, together with Henry Murray School for the Deaf to donate stationery and furniture, as well as constructing toilets at five schools in the ward.
The donation was handed over to beneficiaries on September 18, 2024.
The group, which included businessman Titus Gangata, George Matombo, Gilbert Magunzva, Charity Chikuni, Eddison Zvobgo and Jimmy Shindi donated a total of 1070 72-page exercise books for grade six pupils, 70 chairs, 20 charts, markers, crayons and two toilets for disabled people at Barahanga Primary School.
These items were distributed to local schools which include Barahanga, Machitenda, Gwanha and Masononga Primary Schools as well as Chikarudzo Secondary School and were handed over to the beneficiaries at an event organised by Ward 13 Councillor Sarah Munemo.
Speaking at the event Shindi, who is a director at Econet said the group was committed to giving back to the community that supported their educational journey and encouraged the public to support their community.
“Community ownership symbolizes how citizens care for their environment in terms of investments. By collaborating with fellow citizens and building trust, we can secure resources for community development. Rather than waiting for donors, I advocate for taking initiative.
“Our aim is to partner with our local councillor and government offices to empower Ward 13. Our President always emphasizes the vision 2030 “Nyika Inovakwa Nevene Vayo,” signifying that if you are from Barahanga or Chikarudzo, you need to invest in your community,” said Shindi.
Shindi added that there was need to prioritise quality education in schools as they also cater for adults who intend to advance their education.
“We must prioritize providing quality education in rural schools, as these institutions serve not only students but the entire community. For instance, in my role at a company specializing in gadgets, I see how some countries are encouraging older individuals to return to school due to the increasing complexity of modern technology. It is crucial for the community to ensure the safety of these schools, as everyone benefits from a secure educational environment. Adequate funding is essential for the effective operation of schools. As community members, we should collaborate with responsible authorities like Masvingo Rural District Council. I urge everyone to make a small contribution to support these schools.
“Councillor, we need another secondary school because learners are currently travelling long distance in search of education. We need quality graduates from ward 13 due to the quality of education we are going provide,” said Shindi.
Chikarudzo school head Joseph Chimombe, expressed his gratitude regarding the donation and highlighted the need for Information Technology developments in schools within Ward 13.
“I’m happy for the generous individuals and organizations who have donated stationery to the rural schools. Your selfless contribution is a beacon of hope for our students who face challenges in their educational journey. Your support aligns with the vision of Education 5.0 which emphasizes innovation and community engagement. Investing in learners will have a lasting impact and we pledge to utilise these resources effectively. These materials will enhance learners’ experience, empowering them to reach their full potential,” said Chimombe.
The stationery items were presented by Shindi who was accompanied by Munemo, Rudo Shoko and Israel Makwarimba who was representing Masvingo Dural District Council.
The event was also attended by junior councillors, Memory Mboho from Ward 17, Catherine Muzinda from Ward 18, Juliet Mutete from Ward 13, Chief Mugabe and members of the community.
