Dear Friends,
New Year, new season here at Nhaka Foundation. This is a season of
significant change at Nhaka Foundation, and we’re reminded of God’s awesomeness
by Isaiah 43:19- “See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not
perceive it?”
Having founded and established an organization that is truly
responsive to the needs of orphans and vulnerable children in Zimbabwe and
creating partnerships that have served over 20 000 children in the past 10
years, Patrick Makokoro announced his departure from the day to day role at
Nhaka Foundation as of 31 December 2017. Prior to this departure, Patrick
supported the mentorship and support of the incoming Director and remains
available to support the growth of the organization as it positions itself for
the next 10 years of service.
Patrick will continue to support the ongoing work of Nhaka
Foundation and its team by joining the board of directors as Board President.
Outside pursuing other career opportunities, Patrick will support Nhaka
Foundation through partnership development and strategy. While we are saddened
by the decision to transition from the day to day role, we are excited by the
faithfulness of God throughout his 10 year journey at Nhaka Foundation and we
are even more excited for his transition.
Along with the other members of the Nhaka Foundation Board of Directors, we are committed to the
mission, vision and values that Patrick and Team Nhaka have created over thze
years. To support this transition, Patrick has committed time to work with the
new Director and staff to ensure that there is stability, growth and excellent
delivery of service through out.
If you have questions about our transition process, please email
us at info@nhakafoundation.org. On behalf of the Board of
Directors and staff, we are truly grateful as you journey with us supporting
the orphans and vulnerable children in Zimbabwe.
Sincerely,
Ndaba Nkala
Nhaka Foundation, Deputy Board Chair
