Ms Taurai Alberto lost all her property and documents in the fire on June 25.
The donation of maize meal, cooking oil, sugar, beans, washing powder and soap among others things was handed over by public relations manager Mrs Pauline Matanda.

“This donation is special to us, l lost all my properties and documents in that incident, you have come to save my life, thank you very much for remembering me Zimpapers, may God continue to pour more blessings in this company,” said Ms Alberto.
Zimpapers also donated personal protective equipment (PPE) to John Tallach High School in Ntabazinduna, Matabeleland North, in a bid to help the institution contain and stop the spread of the pandemic.
