HUMAN CARE
Educating Our Future
Welcome to “Educating Our Future” a transformative program aimed at providing education and support to children from extremely impoverished backgrounds in peri-urban and rural areas of Zambia. As a crucial component of our comprehensive poverty alleviation initiative, this human care program recognizes the fundamental importance of education in breaking the cycle of poverty.
Many children from very poor families face significant barriers to accessing quality education. Limited resources, inadequate infrastructure, and a lack of educational opportunities often impede their path to a brighter future. Recognizing this pressing need, we have designed “Educating Our Future” to empower these children and equip them with the necessary tools for success.
