A fund-raising golf tournament to help young and gifted students was this Wednesday launched under the Josiah Magama Tongogara (JMT) Legacy Foundation which was established in memory of the late revered national hero and freedom fighter, General Josiah Magama Tongogara, the commander of the military campaign for the liberation of Zimbabwe.

The JMT Legacy Foundation unveiled a vibrant and dedicated fundraising committee headed by wife of the Commander Zimbabwe Defence Forces, Marry Chiwenga that will host a fundraising dinner and inaugural golf tournament on the 5th of November at the Borrowdale Brooke and Country Club.

Running under the theme 'Teeing off to a Brighter Future-Empowering the Youth Through Education', chairperson of the JMT Legacy Foundation fund-raising committee Marry Chiwenga says she is proud to be associated with such a noble programme and other initiatives that are benefitting a lot of underprivileged and needy students.

Trustee and last born daughter to the late national hero, Nyaradzo born after his death 36 years ago, who represented chairman of the JMT Legacy Foundation ambassador, Dr Simbi Mubako said the aim is to support and assist academically gifted students facing financial difficulties and help them develop leadership qualities.

One of the JMT Legacy Foundation beneficiaries Isaac Sharara, a 2nd year business studies and computing student gave a moving testimony how his life changed for the better with assistance from the foundation.

An auction of the late hero's portraits was conducted and raised a substantial amount for the foundation.

The foundation's scholarship programme established in 2013 has so far supported 89 students.

The foundation is registered as a non profit making organization in 2007 with the objective of promoting the values cherished by the late national hero who loved working with youth for education and leadership development.

The foundation supports disadvantaged students with good academic grades for leadership development by sponsoring tuition assistance and scholarships, and promotes development and entrepreneurial activities that strengthen economic empowerment among other activities.

The foundation appeals for support, contributions and donations in cash and kind to help fulfil its aims and objectives to honour the life of the late General Tongogara and his contribution to the liberation of Zimbabwe.
