STANBIC BANK BOTSWANA & MORUPULE COAL MINE JOIN HANDS TO TRANSFORM HOME OF A PALAPYE RESIDENT
- Through the Bonno National Housing Programme
A family of eight in Serorome Ward, Palapye, now has a safe and sustainable home, made possible through a partnership between Stanbic Bank Botswana and Morupule Coal Mine (MCM). The Bonno House, built through funds raised from this year’s CEO Cycle Challenge, stands as a powerful example of how collaboration can transform lives.
Through the CEO Cycle Challenge, Stanbic Bank Botswana and MCM continue to demonstrate how shared purpose can drive meaningful change. The initiative brings together leaders and partners from across sectors to uplift vulnerable families and promoting a culture of compassion and responsibility. This year’s event saw record participation, reflecting a growing national commitment to inclusive development and social progress.
The handover ceremony, held on 17 October 2025, was officiated by the Minister of Water and Human Settlement, Honourable Onneetse Ramogapi, and attended by community leaders, corporate partners, and other stakeholders.
In his remarks, Stanbic Bank Botswana Head of Client Coverage, Rebone Diloro, said:
"This home is a symbol of hope and opportunity. The CEO Cycle Challenge has shown us how purpose, leadership, and partnership can come together to create real change. When growth is channelled with intention, it transforms lives and provides families with the stability they need to thrive."
The Bonno National Housing Programme continues to make a profound impact across Botswana by providing decent housing and restoring dignity to families in need.
The partnership between Stanbic Bank Botswana and Morupule Coal Mine showcases what is possible when organisations work together towards a common vision: building stronger communities and creating a lasting legacy of hope and growth for Botswana.
