The challenge that nearly every pensioner faces is that they are no longer earning a regular income. Thus they are living off a deteriorating pile of money which is not increasing in value along the same lines as inflation is increasing. When the economic situation does improve in Zimbabwe, it will not change the status of these poor people.
In the high density areas people can not use money at all because the currency has effectively collapsed. They are penniless.
They will remain penniless. As a result we are in it for the long haul, and we hope that you will join us on that journey. One day we will all be as old as they are – we hope to continue to offer them the dignity they deserve for the rest of their lives, just as we would hope to have ourselves in the years to come.
