from JEAN KASSONGO in Kinshasa, DRCKINSHASA, (CAJ News) – A DONATION of US$50 000 to launch a fund to support communities affected by the eruption of Mount Nyiragongo in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is a timely intervention. Our thoughts are with our colleagues and communities affected by this tragedy,” Dunnet said. Vodacom Congo’s campaign to raise funds for those affected by the volcano using M-PESA will be named ‘Pole Sana Goma’, which simply means ‘we are sorry’ in Swahili. “For 19 years, Vodacom Congo’s main goal in the DRC has been the wellbeing of communities, and this time is not different. Thus, we are doing everything within our capacities to help the DRC Government in his efforts to navigate this crisis,” said Anwar Soussa, Managing Director of Vodacom Congo.
