It was great having a get together for children who have been cared for in the past two decades.

Like a woman who forgets about the pain of labor after receiving a bouncing baby ; Pastor Tatenda and Lucia Gunguwo celebrates with their over 100 God given children who have managed to see the glory of God in the land of the living. It was an emotional event full of emotions; seeing different children coming with their big cars to celebrate God's blessings with their God given parents. Hallelujah!

It gives joy and goosebumps and passion to even nurture more. We continue working hard to ensure orphans and vulnerable children are given an opportunity to dream, hope and realize their dreams. Glory be to God!

Daniel Academy Children Writes Examinations
After some months of lockdown due to covid19 pandemic regulations. We are grateful that our children from Daniel Academy were able to write their end of year examination after the lockdown was lifted. Educational empowerment is one of our key areas as it enables children to have sustenance in the future through knowledge and skills. Over 180 children enrolled managed to write and there was a significant decline in performance despite efforts to teach them during lockdown, The underprivileged children lacks material to study online from cellphones, tablets or internet access. Whilst those who afford across the country thrives under theses circumstances, we are bit worried about children who will sit for their year end final examinations.
