Fundraising Initiatives

As Hope Tariro Trust, an organization that is spearheaded by the desire of the betterment of children's welfare, we have made it a dream and desire to be achieved, to engage ourselves in providing quality education for the young people under the age of 5. Living amongst the community has allowed us as an organisation to witness and comprehend the deepest whims and horrors they our fellow men are facing on daily basis. One of their biggest challenges is lack and denial of early childhood education to the youngsters due to a number of factors. One of the factors being distant schools. The two closest schools were between 6-8 km. a distance too long for children under the age of 5. Secondly, there are a number of artisanal mines in the community which pose a lot of danger as children are prone to dangers of falling into the pits. So as to address these issues, as Hope Tariro Trust we decided to open an ECD center Our first attempt to engage on this initiative was in February, where we had a meeting with the guardians who showed a lot of interest in the whole idea. We managed to register 36 children at that time, but only 6-9 children a day were coming. Numbers increased with time and now we have 52 children. As an organization we had our own challenges like infrastructural challenges, stationary challenges, furniture challenges, to mention but a few. The children had to learn while they were sitting on bricks and wooden boards. We also have one shed that is being used for classes which was at times not convenient enough because of the harsh cold, windy weathers. Another big challenge was water scarcity. We did not have enough water for sanitation and cooking for the children so we had to ask their parents to help us by bringing a bucket of water each daily. We managed to cover it around with tents to make it convenient enough for the children to use. We also did not have formal – qualified teachers hence we had to assign our staff members to cover up for the time being while we were sourcing funds to get one. After the schools had been closed for summer break, a qualified teacher from Zvishavane volunteered to teach the children for the rest of the summer break while we waited for a permanent teacher. We had to continue with the children for the rest of the April summer break so that they could catch up with the time they had lost.
