The Postal and Telecommunications Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe (POTRAZ) has extended a compassionate hand to children with disabilities by donating 15 specially designed wheelchairs and accessories to St Giles Rehabilitation Centre in Harare.
POTRAZ Director General, Dr Gift Machengete
Valued at US$10 000, the donation is part of POTRAZ’s ongoing corporate social responsibility initiatives aimed at improving the quality of life for vulnerable groups and promoting inclusivity within communities. The wheelchairs are tailored for children living with cerebral palsy, enhancing their comfort, posture, and mobility support.
POTRAZ’s gesture not only provides physical assistance but also restores dignity, independence, and joy to the beneficiaries and their families. The initiative reflects the authority’s broader commitment to supporting social development beyond the telecommunications sector, reinforcing the spirit of Ubuntu and national unity.
For St Giles, the support comes as a timely boost in their continuous effort to provide therapy, rehabilitation, and assistive technologies for children living with disabilities. Such partnerships underscore the importance of collective action in fostering a more inclusive society where every child, regardless of ability, is given the opportunity to thrive.
