4-H Zimbabwe hosted a follow-up sporting event with prisoners from Chikurubi Maximum Security Prison to ensure a continued contribution to the inmates` physical and mental well-being through sport. The organization also donated a SIX monthly DSTV subscription for the inmates to ensure that they can watch soccer in their spare time as part of their mental therapy.
This year on the 6th of April 4-H Zimbabwe chose to partner with Zimbabwe Prison and Correctional Services (ZPCS) at Chikurubi Maximum Security Prison in celebrating the International Day of Sports for Peace and Development.
The organization is on a drive to promote the mental and physical well-being of inmates and mostly to bring them together in a peaceful co-existence.
Through these activities, the organization also aims to promote inclusivity, thus ensuring that everyone understands that prisons are also a part of our community.
Officer in Charge, Alfred Machingauta was very grateful for the consistency of 4-H Zimbabwe. He highlighted that this DSTV subscription will contribute greatly to the inmates’ mental well-being as they enjoy watching soccer games in their spare time.
Didmus Dewa, Program Manager for 4-H Zimbabwe Foundation highlighted that it is the organization`s privilege to be constantly associated with the facility to make them understand that they are cared for, and that they are people out there who always have them in mind.
