It is actually staggering to digest the impact and the amount of projects that Imvelo continues to spearhead, thanks to the wonderful guests that have visited and our gracious donors.
From drilling, equipping and repairing boreholes to providing water for people, setting-up irrigated food gardens, distributing food aid, delivering over 450,000 school meals, providing school bursaries, distributing school stationary and uniforms, supporting school events, delivering workshops, carrying out cataract surgeries, treating over 7,100 people during the Smile and See programme, maintaining the Ngamo Clinic, setting up sewing cooperatives and supporting the Ngamo sports and recreational centre…and that is not all.
They supported tens of thousands of wildlife during the drought, pumping water for wildlife, carrying out community wildlife protection by their Cobras scouts, continuing their rhino conservation work and translocating another two rhino to their second community sanctuary, it was a MEGA year in terms of driving forward true community and conservation based tourism.
Please download the tangible audited numbers here, which summarise and give you a handy one pager to share with potential guests and i would love to ask for you to take a moment to fill your cup today by watching what one of your partners on the ground achieved with your support and the many lives and wildlife you helped save and protect.
THANK YOU for the continued support so we can continue to do extraordinary work in creating a brighter future for Hwange and the people of Zimbabwe. This work and impact would not be possible without our visitors, partners, donors and friends!
