“Our support to the school is not in words. Our doors are open for advice – for any help you may want. When your laboratories come through, we want to help you in that area,” said Professor Mwenje.

He said the donation had come at a time when the school was in dire need of textbooks for the students as well as the school library. Gwangwava High is a school located in Rushinga District.
