Meet Clive: Launching a Community Gym in Zimbabwe

Harare, Zimbabwe

In Zimbabwe, Clive is helping his community grow stronger—both physically and economically.

After completing entrepreneurship training, Clive launched a neighborhood gym to serve young people and adults interested in fitness. With guidance, coaching, and a workable business model, he turned a long-held idea into a real business that now provides training, accountability, and a place for people to invest in their health.

For Clive, the gym is more than equipment and workouts. It’s a space that builds confidence, fosters discipline, and creates opportunity. As he continues to grow, his vision includes expanding services and hiring more young people from his community.

Watch Clive share what motivated him to start and how this new venture is already making an impact:
