    The Gutu Mission Station

    Our goal​

    Through fundraising efforts over the last several years including the Snickers Marathon/Half-Marathon in Albany, Georgia we have raised over $50,000 for Gutu! The recent economic struggles have slowed down our progress, but we hope to break ground on Gutu this year! Please read below to learn more about this exciting project and how it came about.
    Give To Gutu

    What is Gutu?

    The Zimbabwean government approached HVCM and asked us to build a school in an area known as Gutu, Zimbabwe.  Gutu is virtually unchurched and there is also no local school.  Kids who want to receive an education must walk 6 miles ONE WAY to get to school each day, or a total of 12 miles.  Keep in mind that many of these kids don't have good shoes (or any at all) and the climate in Zimbabwe is much hotter than ours.  

    Our vision for the Gutu Mission Station is that it will continue to grow each year to impact more people in this impoverished area.  In the future we have hopes to build a medical clinic on the property as well.  Look at the picture of the empty field above, and dream with us.  

    So let me ask you...what will YOU do for GUTU?  Click on the "Give to Gutu" button above!

      Snickers Marathon/Half-Marathon

        
    Hippo Valley Christian Mission has sponsored several runners in the last few years to participate in the Snickers Marathon/Half-Marathon as a means to raise funds and awareness for the Gutu Mission Station Project. We appreciate the donors who support these runners! Please give by clicking on the "Give to Gutu" button above.
    A big 'Thank You!' to all current and former participants!
