Incubate May News

I hope we find you all in good health and in good spirits.

Globally, we are experiencing a moment in history that future scholars and generations will study.

Locally, we all have a part to play in contributing to the wellbeing of our communities by adhering to the government directives to keep us safe and healthy.

We can all be heroes by looking out for one another and staying safe during these times.

We commend and applaud all our members on the frontline providing much needed essential services to the community.

Given the new environment we are operating in, we have modified our programs to be virtual and have some board updates and exciting new initiatives to share with you!

 

CHANGE OF LEADERSHIP

As announced at our December 2019 AGM, Zione Walker-Ntheda resigned from the Presidency role. We also farewelled Adaobi Udechukwu after six years of service as Board Secretary.

Charmaine Hunzwi takes over as interim President of Incubate Foundation until the 2020 AGM election period. Precious Rametsana will be interim Secretary until the same election period.

On behalf of the Incubate Board, we give heartfelt thanks to Zione and Adaobi for their tireless dedication and passion to nurture Incubate to where we are now.

Both Zione and Adaobi will now support Incubate as part of the Advisory Committee.

We're excited for this new era of leadership for Incubate.
