Ubuntu is alive in Katutura

McRis Printing, a small business operating from the Katutura Incubation Centre, has donated 50 T-shirts to the Restoration Community Development Organisation (Recodec), a welfare organisation that recently purchased the old Katutura cinema complex.
Recodec bought the hall to make it a refuge for the many vulnerable and needy people who live in the suburb.
The hall had been standing empty for many years and made headlines in 2005 when the four year old Manuela Sofia Hoesemas was brutally raped and murdered there.
Last Saturday, members of Recodec and the community living in the vicinity of the old Cinema Hall undertook a major clean-up operation as they endeavoured to change it into an after-school centre and a shelter for abused women.
The donation was handed to Sandi Tjaronda (extreme left), Chairperson of Recodec, by Flory Maletsky (extreme right), owner of McRis Printing and Designers cc.
