05 Jan 25 Supporting St Cecilia Orphanage: Alliance Media Zambia’s CSR Initiative
In December 2024, the Alliance Media Zambia team visited St Cecilia Orphanage in Chilanga as part of our commitment to supporting local communities during the festive season. The orphanage, home to 36 children aged between 3 and 20 years, faces daily challenges in meeting basic needs.
Understanding the Needs:
During our visit, we identified the orphanage’s most pressing needs, including mealie meal, cooking oil, sugar, and blankets. The current costs for these essentials highlight the financial difficulties they face. Our goal was to provide immediate relief by addressing these needs and plan for long-term support to ensure sustainability.
Collaboration with YOYO Foods:
This initiative was strengthened by our partnership with YOYO Foods, who contributed generously to the cause. Their involvement enabled us to extend greater assistance, demonstrating the power of collaboration in tackling community challenges.
Team Reflections:
The experience left a profound impact on the team. One member expressed their gratitude.
“Your kindness and generosity have touched the lives of those beautiful children and our team. This selfless act is a testament to the exceptional values our organisation upholds. Thank you for inspiring us to make a positive impact in our community.” – Roydah Ndhlovu
Looking Ahead:
As the festive season reminds us of the importance of giving, Alliance Media Zambia is committed to continuing support for St Cecilia Orphanage and similar institutions. By consistently working together and fostering partnerships, we aim to uplift those in need and contribute to building a brighter future for the children of Chilanga.
