What started on my birthday in 2019 as a mini celebration with underprivileged children has sprouted into something much bigger.
My sister and I always wanted to educate kids in honour of our late Mother Tonatsa .
We started funding 10 students at Mapanga Primary, 4 finished Form 4, 1 still in High school and this year we had 3 grade 7s.
God has provided for us and these students be it through some of my friends or business associates who donate and this time my good friends MJ and AJ sponsored these grocery hampers since there was Elnino induced drought. I am grateful 😇
The Trustees at Vatonatsa have always paid in subscriptions to fund these children’s education.
We keep striving to improve education for underprivileged students even though we haven’t posted about it much.

In 2021 I met a business associate and he became a dear friend over the years. Him and his wife have become my good friends. It warms my heart that this amazing couple have become partners at Vatonatsa Foundation. They have been chipping in with donations for school supplies uniforms etc for the students we pay fees for and today we managed to do our groceries for the beneficiaries of Vatonatsa. I had to post this for accountability. Thanks to the Js as we affectionately shorten their name which I will keep anonymous for the fruit we are sowing together. May God bless you !
