Binga District Hospitals Insight Trip
Boasting one of the Seven Wonders of the World – the majestic Victoria Falls – and home to an abundance of wildlife, including Africa’s “Big 5” – buffalo, elephant, leopard, lion and rhino – Zimbabwe is a country of untamed beauty.
Join us as we explore this amazing country and visit some of the projects MATTER and our partners are engaged in to improve communities for the people of Zimbabwe. We’ll tour project sites at hospitals, schools and farms in addition to visiting the awe-inspiring Victoria Falls, spending a few days on safari at 5-star resorts in Hwange National Park, and enjoying a picture-perfect sunset cruise down the Zambezi River.
