This April we revealed a new success case with Nelson Venâncio Mathe,
one of the children under our intervention in the Chokwé region. For 4 months
Nelson attended an Electricity Technical
Course, sponsored by ALG at the SPV school facilities and certified by the
Mozambique state.
Enthusiastic and dedicated, Nelson has started to provide basic energy
installation services in several homes. As a beginner he charges an
average of 500-1800mt (c.£6.5 - £23) per job. Alongside these services of
energy installation, Nelson is also able to repair several small household appliances.
And he also continues to study, currently attending Year 9.
Nelson is very happy – and so are we – as with the skills provided by this technical course he has been able to help
his mother increase the family income with his small contribution. On
several occasions Nelson has teamed up with Elídio Sitoe (another ALG
child who successfully enrolled at these courses) and together they have been
repairing irons and kettles in their neighbourhoods.
Congratulations Nelson and
Elídio, we are very proud of you!!
