THE First Lady, Amai Auxillia Mnangagwa, through her Angel of Hope Foundation has come to the rescue of five children’s homes in Manicaland by donating foodstuffs.
The donation is set to go a long way in alleviating the challenges institutions are facing to feed the children during the Covid-19 pandemic.
The gesture is part of a countrywide initiative to reach out to vulnerable members of the society who are worst affected by the impact of the pandemic.
At least 220 children will benefit from the First Lady’s gesture, which has been welcomed by the institutions.
The beneficiaries include Bakorenhema Children’s Home, Mutare Probation Hostel, Fairfield Children’s Home, Bonda Children’s Home and Kudavana Children’s Home.
Department of Social Welfare case management assistant, Ms Tinotenda Bettar, expressed gratitude for the donation.
“We are thankful to Amai for the assistance she is rendering to the homes. We have been facing challenges in trying to provide basic needs to these institutions and Amai has remembered us,” she said.
