There are many ways to support Zimfest. You can become a member, you can volunteer, and you can make a donation. Many people do all three!
Zimfest Ongoing Fundraising
Help us keep Zimfest and the celebration of Zimbabwean culture strong and active into the future. Donations help the festival keep going and bring the best teachers we can find. Starting in 2019, your contributions also go toward our travel fellowship program, which helps bring one veteran and one brand new Zimbabwean teacher to Zimfest each year. For Zimfest 2019 we were able to sponsor community favorite, Mr. Michael Sibanda, as well as our new friend, Tafadzwa Gapara. For 2023, the veteran teacher fellowship was awarded to AfroFusion vocalist extraordinaire Tsungai Tsikirai, and the new teacher fellowship to marimba teacher and keyboardist Innocent Musafare Mutero. Supporting Zimbabwean participation at the festival is always one of our top priorities and we are thrilled at this opportunity to put your contributions to good use!
