Zimbabwe x WeCareSolar


Join us on an unforgettable journey to the heart of Zimbabwe, where our immersive cultural and learning experience will deepen our knowledge about public health care, maternal-newborn services, education, and solar power. Our rural clinic visits will be complemented with peer learning engagements for our daughters, bespoke experiences to better understand the local culture and excursions deep into the Zimbabwean landscape to see the wonder of its natural habitat and rich wildlife. Beyond its natural beauty and cultural richness, Zimbabwe beckons with open arms, inviting you on a journey of adventure, discovery and impact.
