this supports school construction in Zambia
At This Partners, we like to generate positive outcomes for our clients. We also try to make a difference by helping those less fortunate than ourselves.
We were delighted to help sponsor Duncan Gilby who recently spent time in Zambia on a project to construct and fit-out a school to help vulnerable, orphaned children. Duncan, a skilled joiner and carpenter, spent a number of weeks in Zambia working on the project to great effect, helping the school build project and also doing additional work to support the local community.
As shown in the photo’s, we were also delighted that Duncan was able to put some This Partners paint brushes (as used in our ‘A Brighter Future For Outsourcing’ marketing campaign) to good use!
