In order to
empower women and children to take ownership of their lives and
to create employment, P.H.O.E.B.E (Promotion of Health Opportunity
Equality Benevolence and Opportunity) formerly known as Zimbabwe
Women's Resource Centre has been chosen as the official UK representative
for coordinating and mobilizing women's groups, churches, schools
and cooperatives in Zimbabwe, which would like to apply for recycled
tools through Tools With A Mission, (TWAM) a British Christian charity,
based here in Ipswich.
The director of PHOEBE,
Mrs Mollin Delve expressed her excitement on the success of sending
a full container of tools to Zimbabwe. She said this country's
vulnerable women and children needed urgent help and support. She
thanked their friends and supporters who helped collect tools and
particularly TWAM for sending this container to Africa.
Through the project,
groups will benefit from this opportunity to improve lives by becoming
members and applying for self-help tools such as sewing machines,
welding and carpentry machinery. The generous donations of people
of Suffolk has enabled 30 projects managed by women in Zimbabwe
to apply for the tools to start income generating project. Some
of these projects benefit orphans directly. Below is one of such
groups, telling their story. If you wish to apply, please contact
us here in Ipswich at 19 Tower Street, 01473 231566 or email admin
