“On Easter day we identified and invited 29 Orphans and celebrated the Easter day with them at Beithal Sakubva fitness centre.
“While we were celebrating we noted an Orphan who is 10 years old but living alone in Chisamba singles. We went to his house and see that the boy was living in a very sorry situation.
“As the organization we gave him money and some groceries so that he will have something on the table.
“We again discoverd an old woman from Chisamba singles mbuya nana who is leaving in gross poverty with no one to help her. 6 has 6 orphans below the age of 12 We helped her with groceries and clothes for her and for the kids”, said Mr Nyamhoka.
