Village head and teachers praise MASYAP women on the radio
During a MASYAP Corner recording, a village head praised members’ care for orphans and the sick, and a teacher said donated uniforms have cut absences.
This support group visit was arranged to record an episode of the MASYAP Corner radio programme. The village head, teachers and support group members took part.
What the community said
The village head praised the work of MASYAP women, which he said contributes to the development of the community: the women care for orphans, the sick and the elderly. He added that the group brings the women together, so they can share business ideas that help them earn a living.
A teacher thanked MASYAP for the school uniforms that Threads of Care has given to primary and secondary school pupils. Learners no longer miss classes, she said, because they are no longer sent home for not having a uniform:
“Before the donation, the absence rate was high, as the learners had no school uniforms and were being sent home.”
Why we visit
Routine visits like this let us follow up on how members are getting on, including with their businesses, and give members the chance to tell the MASYAP team about their expectations and the challenges they face.
