NGO Closes Due to Lack of Donor Funding
Wednesday 18 September, 2013 - 9:10
Streets Ahead, a Zimbabwean non-governmental organisation dealing with the rehabilitating of children living on the streets, has closed.
In a newspaper advertisement inserted by board members, the organisation states that it has already approached government to cancel its registration.
The advertisement reads: “The closure is a result of financial problems. We had been struggling for a long time because our sponsors from overseas have withdrawn funding. The donors' withdrawal has meant the suspension of our activities indefinitely.”
