DONATE A BOOK

ZOCS participated in the Inter-Company Relay 2023 held at Heroes Stadium. The high level event graced by Minister of Sports, Youth and Arts created a platform for the team to promote the Donate A Book Campaign. The Campaign supports Government’s Education For All Policy. Education is free but school requisites are not making access difficult by the vulnerable. Come, hold hands with us in this journey as we target to mobilize 100 000 books.
