The Sisters’ Fellowship of the New Apostolic Church has donated essential items worth over K500,000 to 52 patients at Chikwawa District Hospital as part of their ongoing charitable efforts.
Speaking during the donation, the group’s chairperson, Mrs. Esnart Dinyelo, said the items included soap, soya pieces, flour, cooking oil, and other basic necessities.
She noted that many patients struggle to access such items, which have become increasingly unaffordable due to the recent devaluation of the Kwacha.
“We thought of donating these items to patients because they lack these items for their daily living.we believe the items would help them to have health life” She said
Among the recipients were Alise Jackson from Senior Chief Makhwira’s area and Davie Ngulande from Mulanjeni Village under Senior Chief Kasisi. They expressed gratitude for the support, saying it would ease some of the burdens they face.
They also encouraged others to emulate the gesture.
Chikwawa District Hospital spokesperson, Seti Piliminta, applauded the donation, highlighting its importance in addressing food and supply shortages at the facility due to the high number of patients.
Of the 52 patients who benefited from the donation, 31 were women and 21 were men.
