In a display of philanthropy, Vapostori led by Madzibaba Moses Gwasarira has extended its charitable hand by giving wheelchairs and food hampers to learners with disability in Mufakose.
Under the banner Vapostori for ED the apostolic sect has been pushing for peace building post-election across the country with various programmes currently underway.
Apart from pampering the learners, singer Chipo Muchegwa also benefited as Madzibaba Moses pledged to pay full educational fees for her child up to university level.
Madzibaba Moses who is well known for his philanthropic works also vowed to pay recording fees for Afro jazz sensation Chipo and Terry Gee whose song “Ndezvemoyo” has been making waves.
It was all fun and pomp last Saturday at Mufakose High 1 as Madzibaba Moses hosted a luncheon for the children with disabilities together with their parents before a live band.
He also took time to interact with the children with disabilities tackling issues of drug and substance abuse.
Madzibaba Obey Mapuranga who is the national spokesperson and strategist for Vapostori for ED said philanthropic work runs in the blood of Madzibaba Moses.
“Vapostori religion is now advancing humanitarian work, charity programmes and post-election peace building across Zimbabwe through the efforts of Madzibaba Moses at his personal capacity,” he said.
“Learners with disabilities in Mufakose were given wheelchairs and an assortment of food hampers while also sponsoring a school team at Mufakose 1 High that is headed to South Africa next month to represent Zimbabwe,” he said.
Madzibaba Mapuranga said Chipo who was among the guests entertaining people is also among the beneficiaries of Madzibaba Moses benevolence.
“He pledged to pay full fees for Chipo’s daughter from the current term up to university.
“Apart from that he will also foot bills for Chipo and Terry’s album launches,” he said.
A beneficiary, Lawrence Semu’s mother Mrs Beauty Mavamba said it has been a thorn in the flesh for her son living without the wheel chair.
“I am overwhelmed with joy since the burden of having to carry my child on the back will now be a thing of the past through the donation of the wheelchair.
“My child is nine years old and suffers from cerebral palsy as he is incapable of doing anything including walking, talking and seating,” she said.
Chipo also applauded Madzibaba Moses for the kind gesture.
“l feel happy with what l have received today. All l can say is God should continue blessing Madzibaba Moses and increase his portion.
“Madzibaba Moses said he will assist by paying school fees for my daughter who is turning fours years in April. Also to assist our recordings which we want to do and video shoots so that we continue releasing music,” she said.
