by Edward Selasini
An Arusha- based company known as Marketing Zone in conjunction with Golden Rose
Hotel of Arusha last week donated writing materials to Chiswea centre for street
children.
The writing materials worth Tsh.500,000 were handed over to Chiswea director,
Simon Panga by the Golden Rose Hotel chairman, Walter Maeda, on behalf of his
hotel, and the Marketing Zone director, Jayne N. Kathemba.
Apart from the centre receiving the donations, a group of well-wishers
accompanied by Miss Tourism pageant contestants visited Chiswea centre whereby
they cooked, washed the children and cleaned their rooms and compound.
Miss Tourism contestants later had a traditional dance with Chiswea children.
Chiswea children also staged a play which captivated the ladies.
Speaking with the Arusha Times, the Marketing Zone director, said, " we should
not wait for donors from abroad to come to the rescue of children in poverty
here. Lets give out what we have".
She requested other companies to make donations to Chiswea.
