EXPLORE would like to personally thank Zambezi Airlines, Courtyard Eastgate in Johannesburg and all other donors for their generous support of the Chiawa Mini World Cup in the Lower Zambezi. As we mentioned in a previous blog, Zambezi Airlines donated 4 airline tickets for the project and recently the Courtyard Eastgate in Johannesburg has supplied the hotel rooms that will afford 4 lucky Chiawa villagers the chance of a lifetime… going to Africa’s first World Cup! In addition to this, EXPLORE and Multi Choice Satellite TV are donating a TV, installation of a satellite dish and receiver, and one year of service to the local school at Chiawa. This way many of the village residents can enjoy the games and in the future have access to educational TV viewing (Discovery, History channel, BBC news, etc). Viewings will be carefully monitored by the Chiawa Headmaster. Please refer to our previous blog regarding details of this project.
A Special thanks to Don McDonald (CEO, Zambezi Airlines), Bronwen Poulton (General Manager, Courtyard Eastgate) and Gary Bissett (Operations Director, Courtyard Eastgate) for advocating for this incredible and well-received project.
The tournament is scheduled for May 29 and 30 and has created unimaginable excitement in the Chiawa Community!
Thanks to you all!
