KEETMANSHOOP, 02 JUL – The principal of Blouwes Primary School in the //Kharas Region has called for assistance from the community and corporates for learners in the school hostel as they experience food shortages.
Andy Gariseb made this plea at a handover event held at the Keetmanshoop Municipality chambers on Friday after receiving food donated by Edwin Odero, a lecturer at the University of Namibia (UNAM) Southern Campus.
“With the absence of assistance from the government because of the economic situation, we have a shortage of food for the learners in the hostel,” he said.
Gariseb said the hostel is a community hostel with 93 learners and they struggle with parents contributing N.dollar 100 per term and many of the learners coming from less privileged homes and this contribute to the hostel having food shortages.
“To the community and corporate world, please come on board and assist us, we do have the best of the best at that school too and we are trying our best to bring quality education,” Gariseb said.
He thanked Odero for the gesture and said he hoped others will follow the good example of the lecturer who donated items worth N.dollars 3 600 that include sugar, cooking oil, macaroni, soap and sanitary pads.
Odero said it is his passion to help those in need.
“Even though with limited resources, it is my passion to assist those with less to make sure that they, who are not advantaged like us, can have quality education,” he said.
Also speaking at the handover, Keetmanshoop Mayor, Gaudentia Krohne thanked the lecturer and called upon the public and companies to engage in assisting vulnerable people.
“We are thankful and happy about the donation and I really encourage all other people in our community and especially the business people to help not only the children, but also the elderly and other vulnerable people that need support,” Krohne urged.
