Star Fm

Altfin Insurance – Health

4D marketing

Devere Group

Aquirium Trading Pvt Ltd (Gweru based)

Peterhouse Corporate Finance Ltd (UK

FACEZ through partnering sponsors has effectively expanded

to the Midlands province as well as the Mashonaland province.

We look forward to more expansion as companies assist

children in communities within their vicinity. So far we have

managed to cover and reach out in Harare, Midlands and

Mashonaland East province. We believe with the little steps we

are going nationwide.

FACEZ has increased the number of corporate sponsor partnerships this term by 70%.

We thank God for increase and continue to look forward to many new partners. It is our

goal to attain long term partnerships with 67 corporate organizations in the period

2013/2014 with each company taking a minimum of 3 children; or else the equivalent

value in dollar amount. This will enable us to educate 200 children seeing them through

their entire education through partner commitment. To date we have 65 children in our

tuition support system

Therefore in line with our goal the FACEZ team has

embarked on a intensive corporate outreach strategy

engaging various companies and organizations at events

and meetings. This includes members of motor association

and the rotary club among others where the Founder of

FACEZ was able to gain verbal pledge commitments and

network with various corporate leaders.

With each new corporate partnership FACEZ follows a set

line of activities that give interaction between the corporate

sponsor and the beneficiaries. Included in this process is a

symbolic handover ceremony attended by the company,

the school head and PA members, the beneficiaries -being

children receiving sponsorship and their

parents/guardians.

This term we added in 15 children from MEST Foundation in Melfort

to our support database, courtesy of Peterhouse Financial

Corporation sponsorship. We also have children from Highglen

district Harare; referrals from the Highglen District Education

Officer. We have facilitated for several other once off support

payments to persistent walk-in cases we could not continue to turn

away.

We have found that the level of need is simply overwhelming, we

need Zimbabweans to continue to come together to help our nations

less fortunate. We still have an overwhelming number of pending

tuition support cases that we hope to cater for, hence our outreach

to corporate, organizations and individuals.

During a handover ceremony for Altfin Insurance, the Public

Relations Manager, Mrs S Shumba said, “Thumps up to the

FACEZ project which is being spearheaded by young people

towards helping children in difficult circumstances to have

access to education, this is vital for a better future for the

whole country”. Mr Vinod Dhondee AKZL diverted fom his

speech to tell us how touched he was to be able to be part of

what FACEZ is doing and help a community in need. MrGurure

from Aquirium Ltd expressedthe importance of protecting

these children while they are young to avoid them turning

into undesirable individuals later simply because they were

deprived of an education.

It’s never too soon to start your charitable foundation

and begin to build your philanthropic legacy which will

speak into and through the lives of the children you help,

for generations to come.
