Beneficiaries
50% of young Zambians are not in education, employment or training. We need funds to continue the school development and for further education/ training. The new school curriculum needs specialist teaching space. As the school grows, we need dedicated infant toilets and a meeting space. For our further education program, we need to cover fees, living expenses and equipment which is a significant outlay. The young people need a program to better prepare them with the skills for independent life.
We are developing a programme which will expand our support of education and training at the Mutende project. We intend to develop the school with further facilities and equipment and help more young people attend college or university. We have students wishing to study Medicine, Business and Mechanics amongst others. We will also provide training that supports personal development, teamwork and other life skills. While some funding is in place, we need further funds to support the programme.
