The community at Sauyemwa Visually Impaired Centre wants to develop its infrastructure.
The centre accommodates visually impaired people for academic purposes.
The centre accommodates at least 16 people with visual impairments.
The students are hosted in corrugated iron and zinc houses, and classes are conducted under a tree.
The learners cater for their food using their disability grant.
At the moment, both male and female students are sharing a toilet, as it's the only option they have.
The centre has been looking for assistance to improve its infrastructure through the office of the Councillor of Rundu Urban, since last year.
Some good Samaritans came to their aid, leading to the realisation of the centre's development.
Samuel Kwandu, the principal of Zealous Tutorial Centre, says they saw it fit to assist.
"With the same energy, we also want to, you know, change the situations of those that are in need in our societies, the societies that we serve, such as impacting the visual impaired center. We are really thrilled to know that we are part of this project that is really going to change the place where we are standing today. So our desire is to look forward to the centre looking beautiful, just like the counsellor has imagined and pictured, and to say that this will be a wall fence, ablution facilities, and all that, as well as being part of the player and part of the team. We are really thrilled."
Appreciating the efforts of the donor, Athanasius Kasimbombo, a teacher at the centre, says that at the moment, male and female students are sharing a toilet, which is also in bad condition.
"This really is a heavy problem. Just imagine those they have built since 2008. Now they are full. You cannot even go there to stay there for long. Otherwise, you have to hold your nose because the thing smelling in the toilet is so full that we cannot see it and cannot get to the ground. That's the problem that we are facing. Now, according to the donation that they are giving us here, we are really happy they're going to improve everything because we need the flush toilet and also the shower."
He added that improving the facilities should be the first priority, and everything else can follow after.
Victoria Kauma, councillor of Rundu Urban, says the plan is to construct drainage facilities, which will include toilets, bathrooms, and a laundry area.
Kauma says the idea can only be realised if more donors come on board.
Apart from the 25 thousand dollars donated by the Zealous Tutorials Centre, Councillor Victoria Kauma donated 50 bags of cement.
