A FOCUS ON EDUCATION
|
The main focus of our operation in Zambia is to improve educational opportunities for Zambian children. This we do in a number of ways but principally by providing improved infrastructure and teaching resources in schools and by sponsoring children and young adults to school or college. We are also in the process of building a new Learning Centre which will assist over 20 rural schools and thousands of pupils.
At our schools we build classrooms, science rooms and toilet blocks. We provide training and resources for teachers, install blackboards, donate text books, computers and sports equipment. If needed, we install boreholes and renovate dilapidated classrooms. We even supply simple things like chalk, pens and paper where many schools don’t even have these basic but essential supplies. Over 90% of our sponsored children would not be in school without our support. |
