Gibeon, July 02 — Metropolitan Namibia has strengthened its commitment to education and community development by donating a multifunction printer worth over N$50,000 to C. //Oaseb Senior Secondary School in Gibeon, Hardap Region. The official handover occurred on Tuesday, 30 June 2026, with Metropolitan’s Central Regional Manager Joachim van Schalkwyk presenting the donation.
The donation responds to the school’s request for assistance after its previous duplicating equipment became outdated and unreliable, making it difficult to produce learning materials and manage daily operations. The new printer will enhance the school’s ability to provide quality resources to over 670 learners and reduce administrative burdens on staff.
Speaking during the handover, Joachim said:
“At Metropolitan, we believe that education is one of the most meaningful investments we can make. By providing this printer, we hope to make a lasting contribution to the school’s learning environment and empower both educators and learners with the tools they need to succeed. Together, we can create opportunities that have a lasting impact on our communities.”
Principal D. //Kheibeb accepted the donation on behalf of the school and expressed appreciation for Metropolitan’s support.
“This donation marks a significant milestone for our school. Our previous machine frequently broke down, making it difficult to produce learning materials efficiently. Thanks to Metropolitan Namibia’s generosity, our teachers can now better support teaching and learning, while our learners will benefit from improved access to quality educational resources. We are sincerely grateful for this investment in the future of our school and our community.” said //Kheibeb.
This donation is part of Metropolitan Namibia’s ongoing commitment to initiatives that uplift communities and promote sustainable social development. By supporting education, the company helps ensure learners and educators have the tools they need to succeed.
As a trusted financial services provider, Metropolitan Namibia remains committed to partnering with communities nationwide to make a meaningful difference where it matters most.
