Zimbabwean football fraternity has come up together to lead the campaign in helping those that have been affected by Cyclone Idai.
The natural disaster has claimed hundreds of lives and damaged the infrastructure in Malawi, Mozambique and Zimbabwe. The Eastern Highlands region was the most affected part of the country, and several families have been displaced.
PSL clubs have been leading with messages of solidarity to the affected masses while ZIFA Eastern Region Division One side, Chiredzi Stars, has lined up a charity match on Sunday where they will donate the proceedings.
Morning everyone, we have a high profile game coming up Sunday and we have decided 2 donate proceeds to charity. We r putting in place boxes at the stadium gates for anything you may want to donate. Nothing is too small to donate #CycloneIdai @FUZ_ZIM @Gazzaman14 @KirstyCoventry
