Ngwato Development Trust was formed in 2008 with the sole intention of safe-guarding and generating income through properties belonging to the community.<\/p>\n<p>Funds generated go towards completing identified community projects. Mr Gaborone mentioned Leupane Ranch, Palapye Warehouse, Serowe Show Grounds, Radihemelo and Serwe farma as well as Serowe Dam as some of the properties that were rented out to individuals and businesses.<\/p>\n<p>Trust chairperson, Mr Charles Kabelo stated that they made it their business to assist the less fortunate such as destitute persons who did not meet social services criteria. Kgosi Thebe Mathake of Konyana ward expressed gratitude to the trust for heeding their plea and thanked Konyana residents for raising P1 200 to brand the chairs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/botswana\">Botswana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Botswana.
