NetOne Hailed for Community Health Outreach Program

John Mangudya, Chief Executive Officer of Zimbabwe's MUTAPA Investment Fund, lauded NetOne Cellular for its recent health outreach program in Mutambara, located in the Chimanimani East constituency. The initiative, conducted as part of NetOne's 30th-anniversary celebrations, provided free healthcare services to the remote populace.

NetOne partnered with One Health Medical Outreach and ZimSmart Villages to deliver these essential services. Mangudya highlighted the program's significance, stating, "This is exactly the kind of impact that strengthens communities and contributes to national development. When institutions invest in the health and well-being of citizens, they are investing in Zimbabwe's future." He underscored that such efforts demonstrate responsible corporate leadership, emphasizing the duty of organizations entrusted with national assets to create lasting social value alongside commercial growth.

Eng Raphael Mushanawani, NetOne CEO, affirmed that people are central to the company's operations. "Our greatest achievement is not simply the network we have built over the past three decades," he said. "It is the lives we continue to touch. Every community we empower and every person we serve strengthens the legacy of NetOne as a company that exists to improve the lives of Zimbabweans."

Ernest Magadzire, a spokesperson for the initiative, stressed that meaningful development requires addressing people's pressing needs. He noted that the Mutambara Outreach aligns with the government's Vision 2030, the National Development Strategy 2, and NetOne's environmental, social, and governance framework. These initiatives aim to build healthier, more resilient communities capable of participating in Zimbabwe's digital and economic transformation. Magadzire added, "Our story has never been about infrastructure alone. It has always been about people."

Lucia Mlambo, a beneficiary of the outreach, expressed surprise at the thoroughness of the medical services provided, having expected only minor checks.
