Throughout the month of October we have been encouraged, through the reading of scriptures and the people God is bringing to be part of Zimele Wethu Foundation, that strong and sound relationships are key to the growth of any organisation. The proverb above has been our theme for the month. It has encouraged us to not only be inward looking, but to go out and connect with as many people as possible who will work with us to realise the dream of empowering, economically and socially, 8 000 poor women in rural and township communities of KwaZulu Natal by 2020. We therefore want to, through this report, share our new connections, office and field work activities, and achievements for the month of October.
