TNM pumps in K6.4 million to boost Rotary Conference

Telekom Networks Malawi (TNM) has donated K6.4 million to the Rotary for presenting this year’s International Conference scheduled for April at Sunbird Nkopola Lodge in Mangochi.

TNM’s Chief Sales and Marketing Officer, Dan Makata said that TNM is dedicated to support sustainable projects intended at making the world a better place.

“Rotary brings together passionate people working on projects that have a real, lasting impact on people’s lives. As TNM, we are passionate about promoting social-economic development through partnerships such as these ones with the Rotary Club,” Makata said.

He added: “Through collaborating with Rotary, we can apply our experience and commitment to tackle communities’ most persistent challenges and promote effective ways of enhancing health, and prosperity in our communities.”

Makata acknowledged wonderful work that Rotary does in the areas of peace, health, education, sanitation, safe motherhood and economy.

Rotary Clubs are grouped into Districts, and Malawi is in District 9210 with other countries like Northern Mozambique, Zambia and Zimbabwe.

The District Governor for the year 2018/2019 is Rotarian Hutchinson Mthinda who is a Malawian.

Mthinda thanked TNM for the timely help saying it will go a long way during the conference.

“The District 9210 is overwhelmed that TNM has partnered us for this year’s International Conference,” Mthimba said.

He added: “We are expecting to host over 350 Rotarians from four countries therefore this contribution will help us meet other important costs.”

Rotary is made up of three parts; Rotary clubs, Rotary International, and The Rotary Foundation that work to make lasting improvements in communities around the world.

Every year District 9210 holds a conference and this year the conference will be held in Malawi under the theme “Together we Inspire” from 24th to 28tm May.
