Presentation of sewing machines to Chipata compound Mosque

On the 25th of March 2019, Sunrise Africa Relief donated sewing machines along with a local women’s organisation – WFWP- to the local Mosque in Chipata compound in Lusaka, Zambia.

This Mosque is taking care of the people in one of the poorest suburbs of the capital city Lusaka and is also running a primary school of 400 children.

Hailma, the women’s chairperson of the Mosque had asked for sponsorship as the Mosque is currently facing a lot of challenges and to start sewing classes with the young girls would give them an opportunity to learn a skill.

Sunrise Africa Relief was happy to support this initiative and wish the project a great success to help alleviate poverty in the area.

Robert Williamson, Trustee

Sunrise Africa Relief sponsors university student from Lesotho

Sunrise Africa Relief are now sponsoring Miss Eun-Ju Sakala, a young university student from Lesotho. Miss Sakala is studying Business Administration and we hope to aid her in completing her education. Here is a letter she recently sent: 

Dear Sunrise Africa

Thank you for your heartedly given support towards my dreams and aspirations making it possible for me to begin my education, of course in a higher level. I do not have much words to express the support you give but from deep down my heart thank you very much. This year towards the end of January, Mrs. Ulrike Currie and her husband paid for my registration making it possible for me to start classes on time. I am officially a Business Administration (B.A) online student of UNICAF-ZM a University under (operated by) the South Wales University. February 11th my first class began, the Induction Module. So far I have been reporting back to Mr. Paul Currie (Uncle) about my grading’s and fourth. This chance will not only empower me to tackle todays issues concerning the youth such as depression and lack of self-discovery but make them understand and see the beautiful (God given) talents and strengths within them and find solutions to help humanity but also themselves weather business wise, artistic wise or even simply having heart to heart consolations. Education plays a big role for it teaches us how to be disciplined, courageous, and idealistic. With your help Sunrise Africa I will be able to achieve my goals and dreams.

Thank You very Much

Eun – ju Sakala
Lesotho

We will share any updates we receive from Miss Sakala on the site as her studies progress.

Update from Lesotho on knitting donations

We’ve just received a note from Darkwell Sakalaat in Lesotho after receiving knitting from us, which was kindly made by three ladies in Dunfermline who knit for Africa. Read the report below from Darkwell who’s based in Maseru, the capital of Lesotho.

THE DONATION FROM SUNRISE AFRICA RELIEF

Last Tuesday morning the Lesotho representatives met with the PR of the Main Hospital in the capital city of Maseru know as Queen Mamohato Memorial hospital (Tsepong) with whom we introduced our organization as well as Sunrise Africa Relief, We spoke of the previous donations we received how we dealt with them and our plan concerning the recent donation we received. She spoke of four of the hospitals that are under the main hospital which provide free medical service to the low income people in the communities.

Further to that, she requested we meet the Nursing Manager of the Children’s ward – Birth Section with whom we continuously discussed about the donation. Upon our discussion she made a report to the Head of their department who fully agreed for us to make the donation as most of the babies there are of severe cases (premature, malnourished or infected etc.

Today Friday August 3, 2018 was the date given for us to make the donation. We donated the baby hats and jerseys today. The Nurse Manager of that Unit spoke of the plan she has for the package, which is to use the donation for the hospital since the hospital does not have much resources and give the jerseys to the neediest since the hospital runs low on most of the things needed in the maternity Unite. Apart from that she spoke again of the problems they are facing now which are Temperature control for small babies, no enough bedding’s and so for that you know Lesotho is 100% above sea level.

In addition this donation was given to the critical side of the maternity ward, a ward for new born babies. This donation did make a huge change, made people happy both the patients and the nurses as well as us. We are grateful for Sunrise Africa Relief for making Lesotho live again after it has been in slumber for a long time.
