(a)
Vision - we managed to work out our vision for the organisation which is “to
become an entity where men are empowered in all aspects of life”

Mission Statement – The mission statement is “we exist to empower members
spiritually, socially and materially”
(c)
Logo – We managed to come up with a logo for the organisation

Physical Address – The management Board so it fit that we request to use our
church’s physical address for the time being before we set up our own offices.
The church was approached and the request was granted. The address is as

the constitution and we are glad to announce that we have managed to put
together the document.

Code of Conduct – With the help of the Human Resources Committee we managed to
formulate this document which is in effect as we speak
(j)
Finance Policy – The Finance and Projects worked hard to help us achieve this
goal and we are glad we have achieved it
(k)
Project – Much ground work has been done in relation to projects. We had a
intention to formulate all documents that were necessary for us to run our
projects effectively. As we speak we have identified the viable project of
Jumping Castle. Details of this were reported in the Projects and Finance
report.
(l)
We managed to hold other social and spiritual activities which were as follows;

It would be of some importance to note that we also managed to hold all our
planned council meetings.
5. Challenges/Failures
a)
We experienced a challenge where some members could not pay up their
subscriptions in time meaning it was a strain in the management
of funds. A detailed report was given in the treasurer’s report.
b)
Due to the state of our economy we had to shelve one of our projects which were
to acquire a farm and do cattle ranching through
CSC.
6. Recommendations
We
recommend that the Cattle Project be pursued with Mguza District Council
We
recommend that the incoming board consider the idea of acquiring assets for
members in place of monthly cash benefits.
7. Conclusion
Once
again may i thank you all for being members of this great vision. Your
commitment and loyalty will have a great bearing to the success of this
organisation.
GOD
BLESS YOU
