Fundi`s party was incorporated by the CHERD Africa LTD management as a way of appreciating the skilled, and unskilled personnel and subcontractors who have worked for the company. This is in regards to showing that the company recognizes the small efforts put in by everyone daily to ensure its growth.
The party was started in 2020 and is usually held annually and the best casuals are treated to sumptuous meals and refreshments. Since its incorporation, the event has even grown bigger to include awards.
The event is funded by the management led by our esteemed Chairman Dr. Martin Matu and C.E.O Dr. Esther Ndonga but organized by the fundis. During the event, every sub-contractor and their personnel are given a chance to give brief remarks on how the work has been, the challenges they have faced, and their expectations for the future. This also serves as a bonding session with the CHERD management as such interactions paint a clear picture of the areas the company needs to improve on and boast of the areas, they receive compliments on.
Our recent event was held on 24th September 2022 from noon at our ongoing project, Pinebrook Premier Villas, which comprises three- and four-bedroom flat-roof villas with DSQ. The event was a success where the casual and everyone who attended was treated to great entertainment, delicious foods, and other delicacies.
The MC for the event was Mr. Ogeto. The event began with a summon and a praise song from pastor Joshua and our technical head of department Miss Terry Nyambura respectively. It was followed by entertainment by Henry and a brief session of introduction and remarks from the fundi`s, CHERD staff, and the directors.
