HOW IT ALL BEGAN
It came about when we were told in 2013 that there was a student at Rusununguko High School Bromley Zimbabwe, who got 15 points at A level and secured a place to study medicine at the University of Zimbabwe but had to defer his place due to financial difficulties. We were touched by this story and teamed up with a few people. We thought of doing something about it hence the idea of launching a foundation to help such students.
The CC foundation was launched in December 2013 and today we have that student at the University of Zimbabwe Medical School studying to become a doctor. We are committed to see him through his studies.
Such situations sometimes bring despair or hopelessness but we saw an opportunity to help students who find themselves in situations like these. We did not think of going to beg from big organisations or play the blaming game. We realised that we had to look at what was in our hands and start using that before we could shout for help. We are determined and committed to this cause and we are aware that it’s not a one-off event but a life commitment to make sure that one day we will have people that will testify that the foundation did change their lives for the better
