Fondation Bralima, a “big” donation
Category: Congo - DRC, J.A.C.K., Refuge Centre, donors | Date: Apr 30 2009 | By: jack
Hello again,
Bralima is a brewery which started a few months ago in Lubumbashi and which has been in Kinshasa (capital of the DRC)since 1923. It is owned by Heineken International.
I met a lady last year but I actually didn’t know her husband was one of the Bralima managers of Lubumbashi. She visited JACK several times and asked me one day: “What does JACK need?” And because we still had no kitchen at the Refuge and because everything (food, mil bottles) was prepared in my house, I answered a container would be welcome.
So, later on, Franck was contaced to chose a container at the Bralima brewery and…
it took a few days only before the container arrived at the JACK Refuge.
This is really a “big” donation, and JACK thanks the Fondation Bralima and its team for this. Now, we still have to put power and to build and buy all we need for the kitchen….
Encore merci pour ce geste!

This is wonderful news! A great donation. Bless their hearts for caring for the chimpanzees and willing to help JACK. Good luck to you on the rest of your project. I hope you get some more donations to help with that also.
