​sponsorship programme



About
The Baraka Sponsorship Programme is a gateway that connects the most vulnerable children in Zambia with people around the world who are eager to help those who are less fortunate. Being well acquainted with communities across the central, southern and Copperbelt provinces of Zambia, when a child, teenager or young adult is recognised as being at risk, Baraka is notified and the situation is immediately assessed to identify key factors that will qualify them as a potential beneficiary.

Youth & Child Development
Our human centred approach ensures our students are receiving the care and support from our Zambia team, whilst encouraging them to take ownership of their development, so that they can achieve both their personal and academic goals. All our sponsored students come from extreme poverty, which means in most cases their parents have not had an education, and are therefore unaware of the academic pressures and motivational needs of a pupil. Baraka goes beyond literacy and numeracy, focussing on learning environments and new motivational approaches.
"Sponsoring a young person's education makes a tremendous difference to the individual and has ripple effects throughout their life. It's been an honour and a pleasure for me to be a sponsor and a mentor when possible."

Get involved
Sponsoring a child with Baraka is a fairly simple process and you can start at any time as we always have a shortage of donors and a waiting list of children. Depending on your budget you can help a primary school child, a secondary school child or even a college/university student. We also have community teachers who we are helping gain formal qualifications. It is no exaggeration to say that your support will dramatically improve a child's life.
