THE move by the Twins Association of Zimbabwe to help a homeless woman get shelter in Epworth should be hailed.
Violet Chikanzi, 23, was impregnated by a homeless man and was blessed with twins.
The association’s co-presidents — Farai and Tendai Katonha — donated baby wear, groceries and toiletries to the mother and kids.
This is the kind of help we expect from influencers.
We need them to make a huge impact in the lives of the less privileged in our society.
We need them to improve the lives of such people and cheer their spirits.
The Twins Association of Zimbabwe realised that the twins and their mother needed help and that is what they provided.
Kudos to them for such a good gesture.
They have also taken the mother and her twins to a proper home and that is great.
Winter is coming and temperatures are dropping and the little twins will now have a proper home to stay in.
Most people do not choose to be homeless.
A lot of factors lead them to end up living on the streets.
Some of them are on the streets because they were abused as kids and others lost both parents and found themselves with no place to live.
Homeless people deserve a better life and we can only play our part by removing them from the streets.
We all should play a part in helping the homeless peoplre.
The Twins Association of Zimbabwe have shown us that this can be done and it can make a huge difference.
The smallest gifts have the potential to change people’s lives in a very big way as was the case with the homeless woman and his twins.
We need to see more companies and other organisations coming on board, in a big way, to help the homeless.
We are impressed with the way the Katonha twins are working hard to ensure they make a difference in this country.
Their organisation, the Twins Association of Zimbabwe, is moving in the right direction in demystifying myths associated with twins.
They founded the association and they have worked hard to ensure that it is starting to make a difference in our country,
Their mission was to empower twins wh have often been sidelined in some communities due to myths surrounding their existence.
Four years ago, the Twins Association of Zimbabwe came to the rescue of the family of eight-year-old twin boys who died after spending the night stranded on Mt Nyangani.
After the story was published in our sister newspaper, The Herald, the Twins Association of Zimbabwe followed up with the family and pledged to work with tem in the future.
They gave the family a cash donation and pledged to buy tombstones for the twins’ graves.
Tanatswa and Tendai Matsiwira went onto the mountain in search of stray cattle with their father Shingirai and cousin Anesu.
However, the weather changed and they could not find their way back.
