Children at Harare Children’s Home were reminded that their future is not defined by their circumstances, following a mentorship and donation visit by diversified financial services group Zimnat, in collaboration with Nisha Ts.

The engagement combined practical support with mentorship and encouragement, aimed at helping the children build confidence, resilience and readiness for life beyond institutional care. More than a donation, the visit created space for conversations around self-belief, discipline, personal responsibility and the courage to pursue one’s aspirations.

At the heart of the initiative was a mentorship session led by Nisha Ts, who encouraged the children to develop a strong work ethic, set goals and make informed decisions as they prepare for greater independence. The session also explored practical life skills and social readiness, helping the children understand the importance of approaching the future with confidence and purpose.

Zimnat complemented the mentorship session with a donation of groceries to support the home’s day-to-day needs. The contribution formed part of Zimnat’s continued relationship with Harare Children’s Home, following previous support in 2023 when the Group donated school uniforms after a fire affected parts of the institution.

Commenting on the initiative, Zimnat General Insurance Chief Executive Officer, Hazel Nyamuba, said the engagement reflected Zimnat’s broader commitment to empowering prosperity within the communities it serves.

“For Zimnat, empowering prosperity goes beyond financial services. It is about helping people move forward with dignity, confidence and opportunity. True prosperity is built when people are given not only practical support, but also the knowledge, encouragement and belief they need to shape a better future,” she said.

Zimnat Group Marketing Executive, Tatenda Marongwe, said the initiative carried even deeper significance as Zimnat celebrates its 80th anniversary this year.

“As we mark 80 years of empowering prosperity, we are reminded that legacy is not only measured by how long an organisation has existed, but by the lives it continues to touch. Supporting children as they build confidence for the future is one of the most meaningful ways we can live our purpose,” she said.

Harare Children’s Home is one of Zimbabwe’s longest-standing child care institutions. Established in the early 1920s in response to a flu epidemic and economic hardship that left several children without family support, the home has provided care, education and a sense of belonging to vulnerable children for generations. Now located in Eastlea, it has capacity for over 100 children and continues to rely on community and corporate support to meet its needs.

The collaboration between Zimnat and Nisha Ts was a reminder that empowerment must speak to both immediate needs and long-term potential. Groceries helped meet the needs of today, while mentorship helped strengthen the confidence required for tomorrow.

For the children, the visit offered reassurance that they are seen, valued and capable of shaping their own future. It reminded them that their dreams remain valid, their abilities can be nurtured, and their journey ahead can still be filled with purpose.

Zimnat is a diversified financial services group with interests in life assurance, short-term insurance, microfinance and asset management. The Group is a member of Masawara Holdings Group.
