WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT US
Testimonials
AIDS Council Trust Zimbabwe has done a lot for me. I couldnโt even cut a fabric nor set up a sewing machine. But through ACTโs community apprenticeship program, I am now a dress maker. Right now I am getting orders for sewing African attires. I have also joined an ISAL savings group. We are saving money to buy more sewing machines.
Concilia Kalichi
Beneficiary
I want to thank ACT for the community apprenticeship program. I am now able to support myself and my mother economically through baking. I bake wedding cakes, birthday cakes and many other things. I am also a member of a mukando group (Internal Savings and Lending [ISAL]).
Priscilla Muchabaiwa
Beneficiary
I lived on the streets for more than 3 years and I had lost all hope. I never thought that I could achieve anything in my life. ACT has helped me to realize my potential. I was afforded an opportunity to study electronics for 6 months. The program equipped me with abilities to fix gadgets like cell phones, TVs, radios and the general electrical connections.I am now employed and have since moved from the streets to rent a room. I now wear clean clothes, bath every day and eat food of my choice.
