Grant Description

In 2014, China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs — through its Embassy in Zimbabwe — provided a grant to the Government of Zimbabwe for the Rukururwi Primary School Classroom Construction Project.

This project involved the construction of three classroom blocks at Rukururwi Primary School in Mt Darwin district within Mashonaland Central Province.

The new blocks of classrooms were built at a cost of over $35,000 with the support from the Chinese Embassy and five Chinese enterprises in Zimbabwe: Anhui Foreign Economic Construction Group, China-Africa Sunlight Energy Co., Ltd., Nantong Construction Engineering Group, Shandong Jinyimeng Mining Company, and Nanchang Foreign Engineering Company.

This project was officially completed and handed over to the Zimbabwean authorities on 28 November, 2014. At the ceremony, the Chinese Federation of Zimbabwe also set up an annual scholarship of $5000 USD at the school.
