Woman walks two hours to donate to cyclone victims

People in Zimbabwe’s capital Harare have been donating food, clothes and other household essentials to victims of Cyclone Idai at the Presbyterian church.

One of the volunteers at the church, Natalie Detering, told the BBC she was taken aback as a woman turned up just before 07:00 local time, having walked for roughly two hours to deliver her donation.

Ms Detering said that the donor had said she couldn’t afford her bus fare but had walked all the way from her home because Jesus had told her to.

Among her donations, which she carried on her head, was a pot, a blanket and some of her clothes and a towel.

“I cried the whole day every time I thought about it,” Ms Detering said.
