COPPERBELT Province Minister Mwenya Musenge has implored the corporate world to contribute to the education sector to improve the quality of learning.
Mr Musenge said the corporate world should contribute to the education sector as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).
He was speaking when Airtel Networks Zambia Plc donated computers to St. Joseph’s school for the deaf in Lufwanyama at the weekend.
Mr Musenge hailed Airtel Networks Zambia for donating the computers worth K20, 000 to St Joseph school for the deaf and for providing support to various schools countrywide.
Mr Musenge said the donation was a clear testimony of Airtel’s determination to reach out to the community and render assistance where it was needed.
St Joseph’s School senior teacher, Charles Chalata said the donation would improve the provision of quality learning and computer literacy.
Mr Chalata said the school had struggled with resources that could enhance the learning of the vulnerable pupils at St. Joseph’s School.
Airtel Networks Zambia Distribution Manager Wyson Lungu said the donation was part of the company’s CSR initiative and was meant to support the communities where it operates.
Mr Lungu said the donation affirmed the entity’s commitment to work with the Government in various developmental projects across the country.
