Perekedza - "To walk together"

Perekedza is a charity helping orphaned children in Zimbabwe aged between 5 and 18. The Zimbabwean people have suffered terribly under the Zimbabwean government leading to huge unemployment and poverty.

​

 

The one thing that still stands strong is the community spirit and this is where the orphans are cared for by grandparents or aunts and uncles. A lot of the carers are unemployed and are unable to pay for schools fees as well as food being expensive in a destroyed economy.

​

 

At Perekedza we support the children by paying school fees and giving food hampers throughout the year. An education is something that can’t be taken away from the children and gives them a hope and a sense of purpose.

​

 

All proceeds go direct to the mission of schooling and feeding the children. Perekedza is run on a volunteer basis with no funds being drawn to pay salaries.
