What they are saying about ZANE:
ZANE is an organisation well worthy of support. They have provided
desperately needed relief and help to black and white Zimbabweans in
recent years. The need remains very great and until normal government
returns to Zimbabwe, organisations like ZANE help fill a serious gap in
social provision
Rt Hon Sir Malcolm Rifkind QC MP
former Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs
I have long been an admirer of ZANE and its valuable work in Zimbabwe.
As the country's crisis has deepened, ZANE has continued to provide vital
humanitarian support to the needy. Whether it be essential food and
medicine for the older, vulnerable community or palliative care for
HIV/AIDS sufferers, ZANE provides the lifeline without which many
ordinary people struggling to survive in Zimbabwe would surely have
perished. The fact that they continue to do so with such modest human
resources makes their work all the more extraordinary.
Rt Hon Lord Malloch Brown KCMG
Minister for Africa, Asia and the UN
ZANE is an extraordinary charity set up by inspiration and continued by sacrificial love. I have been enormously impressed by the vision, the hard work and the unquenchable spirit of everyone I have met. There is no escaping the need. What matters is an equally serious response from people at all levels of society. ZANE is making such a response and I gladly put my name to the work these splendid people do. If we were equally motivated to make a difference to those in need, the world would be a much better, fairer and healthier place for us all to live.
The Rt Revd John Pritchard
The Bishop of Oxford

ZANE is a colour blind charity; to the best of our knowledge, ZANE is the only charity in Zimbabwe that ofers help to both the black and white communities in Zimbabwe. We have been doing this for the last six years, and in recent times the needs have escalated massively.
There are some 6000, mainly British born, old aged pensioners in Zimbabwe.
Their position is desperate and grows worse daily. Some are in receipt of devalued pensions from the Zimbabwe government; but as the rate of inflation is around 1.7 trillion percent and rises monthly, the elderly have no way of keeping pace... The care homes face a terrible financial dilemma of unlimited need, yet they have no money or resources to match.
ZANE is also working in the communities in the high-density areas surounding Harare.
ZANE projects include cholera treatment and
primary health care/HIV-specific medical clinics; home visits and home-based care training; support groups and education; nutritional supplementation; training in food production/nutrition and the seeding and support of income generating projects.
