By extending its role as principal sponsor of the ZAA for the second year running, MoneyGram has cemented its relationship with the Zimbabwean community in the UK and also demonstrated its hope and support for the success of their home country.
ZAA Chief Executive Conrad Mwanza said: “We are really grateful to MoneyGram for supporting this event from its inception three years ago and with this year’s sponsorship, they’ve now gone two years in a row as our main financial backer. We receive their support as clear evidence of their ongoing commitment to our community and also as an expression of their shared hope in the success of our home country.”
MoneyGram's Oluwaseyi Oke said: “Giving to and supporting the communities that use our services is another way of saying thank you; because without our customers, there is no MoneyGram! We are delighted to be associated with the Zimbabwean Community and ZAA in particular to celebrate and honour excellence within this great community. That is why we are the headline sponsor of ZAA for the second year running. In the UK, customers can send money to Zimbabwe from every UK Post Office, Thomas Cook and anywhere you see the MoneyGram sign or online at www.moneygram.co.uk. It costs just £4.90 to send £100.00 and money arrives in minutes.
