Old Mutual Foundation supports Otjiwarongo Multi Purpose Help Centre with essential educational and office resources
The Old Mutual Foundation, through its Executive Discretionary Fund, has provided essential educational and office resources valued at N$24 812.53 to the Otjiwarongo Multi Purpose Help Centre (OMPHC), strengthening the Centre’s ability to support vulnerable children and families in the Otjiwarongo community.
The handover was made on behalf of the Old Mutual Foundation by Old Mutual Namibia Group Chief Operating Officer, Logan Fransman, as part of the Foundation’s ongoing commitment to community upliftment and social development.
The donation comprised a range of practical equipment and stationery, including office furniture, a multifunction business printer, printer cartridges, copy paper, whiteboards, binding materials, and heavy-duty office tools such as staplers and paper punches. These items will directly support the Centre’s administrative, educational, and daily operational needs.
The Otjiwarongo Multi-Purpose Help Centre has been operating since 2003 and provides critical services such as daily meals, educational support, school uniforms, counselling services, hygiene programmes, and community awareness initiatives for orphans, vulnerable children, and struggling families.
Speaking at the handover, Fransman said the contribution reflects Old Mutual’s belief in empowering organisations that deliver tangible impact at grassroots level. “The Otjiwarongo Multi-Purpose Help Centre plays an important role in supporting vulnerable members of the community. Through the Old Mutual Foundation’s Executive Discretionary Fund, we are pleased to contribute resources that will help strengthen the Centre’s day to day operations and enhance the support it provides to children and families,” said Fransman.
He added that meaningful partnerships with community-based organisations are essential to creating sustainable social impact.
“By supporting organisations that are deeply rooted in their communities, we are investing in long term resilience and helping to create environments where dignity, care, and opportunity can thrive,” he said.
The Old Mutual Foundation continues to focus on initiatives that promote education, health, and social development across Namibia, with a strong emphasis on practical interventions that deliver lasting community benefit.
