CHRISTMAS COMES EARLY FOR JWANENG ORPHANS

   

Jwaneng Mine will today host a Christmas Party for the 39 children of the Mpule Kwelagobe Children’s Centre. The party, which will be held at the Debswana club, is set to feature a variety of fun activities such as jumping castles, face painting and games. It will also serve to strengthen the relationship Jwaneng Mine has cultivated with the Centre. The children will also receive a surprise Christmas gift.

Through this Christmas party, Debswana is once again portraying the Value of ‘Show We Care’ which highlights the organisations’ commitment to the communities within the vicinity of the Mine. Recently General Manager Dale Ekmark announced that the funds raised during the annual Spring Cycle Race would be used provide the much needed renovation of the Children’s Centre.

Named after Botswana’s first Miss Universe, Mpule Kwelagobe who scooped the prestigious title amongst hundreds of the worlds beautiful women in 1999 Debswana donated the infrastructure to assist the Government in the provision of  accommodation and a home for abused and orphaned children. The Centre comprises of 39 children and six house mothers.
