receiving football kits and sports equipment donations,
shipping the donations to Zimbabwe and being able to
travel to Zimbabwe to distribute the donations in person
as the chair of the foundation. However, throughout the
year we managed to hold games including football,
basketball, volleyball and making sure the “girl” child is
also our priority in whatever we do with our cluster of
schools in Zimbabwe. We also successfully invited an
African poet to perform at a UK school, a Czech Republic
based African drummer to perform at a UK school and a
Bristol based African dance and music group to perform
at a UK school as part of Black History month and
Inclusion and cultural diversity initiative in October 2024.
So far, our biggest achievement as a foundation was
taking UK students on a cultural exchange trip to Africa -
Zimbabwe in 2018.
