There has been a dramatic rise in Covid-19 infections in Zimbabwe since Christmas and we can't deny it is concerning us. 

Please pray with us. We'll be posting prayer points regularly on our social media so you can follow along.

We pray you are all staying safe and well as we enter into a new year still very much in the midst of the pandemic. We are mindful of those in the Zimkids community battling with job losses, loneliness and grief in this time.

Please know we value you and we are praying for you, please do drop us a line to let us know how you're doing.  

We have had an incredible year despite the many, many challenges faced. We owe that success to God and to you, all of our incredible supporters, who even in the face of your own struggles have kept us going and achieving above and beyond what we could possibly imagine. Thank you.

During the Summer, Coronavirus grounded Zimbabwean student Chloe Cowley back in her home town Harare for a good few months and we are so pleased it did. Chloe contacted us and asked if she could sensitively and appropriately document some of our work and produce a short film. The result is outstanding and summarises our self-sufficiency project so well.

Last Friday 27th September we held our annual Zimquiz night. It was a night to remember with exciting live and silent auction prizes,  dinner, live music, the latest Zimkids news and much more. Altogether the evening raised over £7500! Thank you to all the donors, bidders and attendees on the night for their generosity. These events make such a difference to the lives of our families in Zimbabwe.

3 of our regular supporters are running a marathon on 6th October in memory of our great friend Ruth Merriman who died earlier this year. All money raised will go to Zimkids.

Huge thanks to Kelly, John and Darren and their supporters for raising over £5000 for the work of Zimkids!
