that goes beyond processes and systems; it is embedded in our Smile and Move
culture. At BotswanaPost, we believe in driving meaningful change through smart
partnerships and targeted community initiatives,” said BotswanaPost Chief
Corporate Affairs & Sustainability Officer, Ms. Tebogo LebotseSebego,PCH.
As part of its Smart Partnerships approach, BotswanaPost has joined forces with

ceremony at Kachikau Primary School, where they will present donations of
essential goods and toiletries to students in the PWD Unit. The event will be
attended by village leadership, school representatives, and key stakeholders,
highlighting the collective commitment to enhancing the well-being of the
students, supporting their daily lives, and upholding their dignity.

150 Years of Connection – #Kwala Tempa Posa
To commemorate 150 years of BotswanaPost, marathon participants will take part
in a special postcard initiative – #Kwala Tempa Posa, where they can write
messages to women, which will be placed in a commemorative envelope. This
initiative extends into March for International Women’s Month and will continue
throughout the year, celebrating key commemorative days and reinforcing
BotswanaPost’s role in connecting communities and fostering a culture of writing.
BotswanaPost’s participation in the FNB Kazungula Bridge Marathon is a testament
to its commitment to inclusivity, social responsibility, and digital transformation.
Through Smart Partnerships and targeted initiatives, BotswanaPost continues to
integrate postal and digital services into everyday life while uplifting communities
across Botswana.
