Africa-Press – Namibia. <\/strong><\/span>Beneficiaries all from seven \/\/Kharas constituencies received equipment and materials totalling N$74 000 to support their income-generating activities on Friday.<\/p>\n

The Ministry of Gender Equality, Poverty Eradication and Social Welfare\u2019s Income-generating Activities (IGAs) Support Programme facilitates community socio-economic empowerment with materials and equipment to enhance and promote economic opportunities for men and women. At the same time, the programme mobilises communities towards self-reliance and contributes to wider community upliftment.<\/p>\n

The IGA programme falls under Community Projects and was founded and established in 2001 to improve the quality of life of Namibians through funding community projects and strengthening the earning capacity of people from poverty-stricken backgrounds.<\/p>\n

The project benefits one person or group per constituency per year so that no constituency in the region is left out of the initiative. Sponsorship is for individuals as well as groups. Applications for sponsorships are invited from April until September each year.<\/p>\n

Due to economies of the world collapsing and businesses either scaling down or closing down, holistic and continuous government intervention and support are needed to mitigate the impact of these phenomena, according to the ministry.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlease work hard with the necessary passion and determination to make your business ventures as successful and sustainable as possible. I convey best wishes to all beneficiaries, and I wish you success with your ventures,\u201d said \/\/Kharas governor, Aletha Frederick, at the handover ceremony at the Keetmanshoop library. This year\u2019s beneficiaries are Keetmanshoop Rural- Felicity Jossob; Oranjemund \u2013 Brenda Apollus; !Nami#Nus \u2013 Josefina Niinkoti; Karasburg East \u2013 Maria Rooi; Karasburg West \u2013 Nilorence Josea; Keetmanshoop Urban \u2013 TB Golley and Gisella Claasen; Berseba \u2013 Aron Ludwig Apollus and Melitha B Hengari.<\/p>\n
