FDH Bank Donates MK20 Million to Chilobwe Community College

In August 2017, FDH Bank donated information communication technology equipment worth MK20 million to Chilobwe Community Technical College.

Speaking at the handover ceremony, Kawawa Msapato, Head of Personal and Business Banking at FDH Bank, explained that the Malawian commercial bank has a keen focus on education as one of its corporate social responsibility investments. Mr Msapato said that education is a key driver in terms of national development, creating skills vital to grow the economy. Kawawa Msapato said that training provided by Chilobwe Community College will help provide the next generation of artisans with the technical skills required to benefit the nation.

Elliot Mulanje, Regional Service Centre Manager for the Technical, Entrepreneurial Vocational Education and Training Authority told the media that the equipment will provide vital support in capacity development initiatives at the centre, explaining that information communication technology has come to be one of the key components required in technical skill training. He said that the equipment will be used to train quality trainees to meet the needs of the market.

Lennox Mkomadzinja, Chilobwe Community College’s acting principal, said that the donation came as a relief to the learning institution, pointing out that it will go a long way in supporting training delivered by the college. The equipment donated, which included 21 computers, air conditioners, uninterruptible power supply and printers, will help 21st Century carpenters, plumbers and bricklayers, providing them with the information communication technology knowledge required to pursue careers in design and related vocations.
