ZAMBIA

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.

OTHER PROJECTS

Other than education, Baraka in Zambia has a variety of community projects aimed at helping local organisations in need of support.
  • We fund a sports academy in inner city Lusaka that helps promote education and provide important health, discipline and life skills messages to over 200 kids.
  • We support the Albino Foundation of Zambia in their quest to improve the lot of the more than 20,000 Zambians who are inflicted with this condition.
We conduct our own health outreach programme to schools, teaching kids essential sanitation skills via our incredibly popular puppet show.
