World Humanitarian Day | 19 August

Today, Ongaeshi Giving Back joins the world in honouring the spirit of humanitarianism, the belief that every person deserves dignity, opportunity, compassion and hope, regardless of where they come from or the circumstances they face.

Our work at Ongaeshi is rooted in the belief that meaningful change begins within communities. Through education, community development, support for schools, access to essential resources, livelihoods and initiatives that strengthen resilience, we walk alongside rural communities in Zimbabwe, helping create opportunities that can last beyond a single intervention.

From supporting children and teachers to responding to communities affected by disasters, restoring essential infrastructure and empowering people with practical skills, our work is ultimately about one thing: giving people the opportunity to build better futures for themselves and their communities.

Today, we celebrate the volunteers, partners, donors, community leaders and everyday people who continue to give their time, resources, skills and hearts to others.

Humanitarian work is not always about doing something extraordinary. Sometimes, it is simply choosing to care, choosing to show up, and choosing to leave a place better than you found it.

At Ongaeshi, we believe that giving back is more than an act it is a responsibility to humanity.

Ongaeshi Giving Back extends its deepest condolences to the families, friends, and communities affected by the tragic Lake Kariba boat disaster.

Our hearts are heavy with the loss of so many precious lives, including children. We stand in solidarity with all those grieving this unimaginable loss and pray for strength, comfort, and peace for every bereaved family during this painful time.

May the souls of those who lost their lives rest in eternal peace. Our thoughts and prayers are with Zimbabwe.

Today marks the completion of my first tote bag, a small achievement that represents the beginning of greater things to come.

Learning a new skill requires patience, determination, and perseverance. Seeing individual pieces come together into a finished product has been both rewarding and inspiring. It is a reminder that with commitment and practice, we can achieve more than we imagine.

At Ongaeshi, we believe that every child and young person deserves the opportunity to learn practical skills. By empowering women, girls, and the boy child with vocational skills, we are investing in a future where communities can thrive and poverty can be reduced through self reliance and entrepreneurship.

This is more than just a bag; it is a symbol of learning, growth, and the transformative power of vocational skills in building stronger communities.

Every expert was once a beginner.

Today, our learning journey focused on embroidery, tote bag construction, and precision stitching. What may look like simple stitches are actually the building blocks of craftsmanship, confidence, and opportunity.

At Ongaeshi, we believe that practical skills create pathways to self-reliance. Each stitch represents patience, creativity, and the determination to turn potential into possibility.

The tote bag is still in the making, but the skills being developed are already taking shape.

Empowering Communities Through Skills Development

At Ongaeshi, we believe that sustainable development begins with equipping people with practical skills that can create opportunities and improve livelihoods.

I am currently learning advanced embroidery and sewing techniques using state-of-the-art embroidery and sewing machines. These machines can create beautiful lettering, words, patterns, and decorative designs, while also allowing custom designs to be uploaded directly into the machine’s computer system. The possibilities for creativity and entrepreneurship are truly exciting.

Although I am still perfecting my skills, I am making steady progress and look forward to mastering these techniques. My goal is to share this knowledge with women and girls in the communities where Ongaeshi operates, helping them develop income-generating skills that can contribute to long-term self-reliance and economic empowerment.

Skills training is an important part of our commitment to sustainability. By investing in people, we are helping to create opportunities that can continue to benefit individuals, families, and communities for years to come.

Here are a few examples of my work so far as I continue learning and improving. Every stitch is a step towards empowering others.

Menstrual Hygiene Day 2026 🌸

For many girls and women in rural communities, managing a period is not simply a matter of choice it is a matter of access.

While menstruation is a natural part of life, the lack of affordable sanitary products, clean water, safe sanitation facilities and accurate information continues to create barriers to education, health, dignity and opportunity.

At Ongaeshi, we believe that no girl should miss school, feel ashamed or be held back because of her period. Menstrual health is not a luxury it is a matter of dignity, equality and opportunity.

This Menstrual Hygiene Day, we stand with girls and women in underserved communities and renew our commitment to breaking barriers, promoting menstrual health education and advocating for access to essential menstrual hygiene products.

End stigma. Period.

For seven years, Ongaeshi has stood as more than an organisation, we have been a lifeline, a voice of hope, and a bridge to opportunity. From saving lives and promoting education to empowering communities and restoring dignity, every step of this journey has been driven by purpose and compassion.

What began as a vision has grown into impact that can be seen in the lives of the people and communities we serve. We celebrate every volunteer, partner, supporter, and community member who has walked this journey with us.

Seven years later, the mission remains the same: to serve, to uplift, and to create lasting change.

The work continues. The impact grows. The purpose lives on.

As we open the doors to Term 2 of 2026, we do so with renewed hope, courage and purpose. A new school term is more than just a return to classrooms it is another opportunity to dream again, to learn again, and to rise again.

At Ongaeshi, we believe every child carries potential that deserves to be nurtured, protected, and celebrated. Behind every school uniform is a future doctor, teacher, farmer, engineer, artist, leader or change maker waiting for a chance to shine.

To all learners stepping into this new term:
May you walk into your classrooms with confidence.
May you find strength in difficult subjects, courage in uncertain moments, and joy in every small achievement.
Remember that your story matters, your dreams are valid and your education is powerful.

To parents, guardians, teachers, and communities thank you for continuing to stand beside our children, especially in challenging times. Your sacrifices, encouragement and love are shaping a generation that will transform our communities for the better.

This term, let us choose kindness, resilience, discipline and hope. Let us continue building safe spaces where children can learn, grow, and believe in themselves.

At Ongaeshi, we remain committed to supporting education, dignity, and opportunity for every child because when we invest in children, we invest in the future of our communities.

Here’s to a productive, peaceful and impactful Term 2.
May it be filled with growth, breakthroughs and endless possibilities.

Education Uninterrupted

In many rural communities, staying in school is not just about ambition it’s about what is possible.

At Ongaeshi, we focus on making it possible.

Through practical support with school related costs, access to essential learning materials, and community driven solutions that strengthen household stability, we help remove the barriers that quietly push children out of classrooms. At the same time, we invest in approaches that last building resilience within families and working alongside communities so that education continues, consistently.

This is not temporary relief. It is a commitment to continuity.

Because when education is uninterrupted, potential has the space to grow and futures remain within reach.

Equal access to education, decent work, and economic resources is not a privilege but a right. When women and girls are empowered, communities grow stronger, fairer, and more resilient.
