Delta Corporation in its 125th year of existence has today officially inducted over 50 students going into ‘A” Level and university as part of their bursary roll out programme at Mandel Training Centre in Harare.
Delta Corporation aspires for a Better World by contributing to making a difference in the communities that it operates in.
The Company believes in a Brighter, Better, Thriving and Growing society and today something new has come to fulfil this aspiration in the bursary scheme community and the Company is proud of it.
Delta has been involved in assisting students as a means of enhancing capacity and capability for less privileged students for twenty years.
Delta runs a vibrant education assistance programme which includes this school bursaries program which commands close to USD$100,000 annually.
To date close to 2,000 students have benefited from the program over the years amounting to USD$2million investment.
Delta has a total of 100 students benefiting from the program from A-Level up to university this year and these students have been selected with the help of the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education.
The bursary scheme program is also complimented by its Delta Technical Institute (DTI) that develops artisans for the group from A- level students.
The DTI has seen over 2,000 artisans over the years graduate, and these have been absorbed in various jobs within the organisation.
Mandel Training Centre of the business focuses on imparting managerial skills to graduate trainees through its extended programs ie. the Graduate Development Program and Supervisory Development Program.
“To the students, they should take this investment as a pillar of inspiration. The value of the bursary in this difficult environment should challenge them to work hard to improve themselves academically so that in turn they may be able to further develop the communities where they come from,” said Patricia Murambinda, General Manager – Corporate Affairs.
Delta Corporation investing in education and our future!
