CCCYD hopes to provide its community members - particularly women, children, and orphans - with the resources they need to succeed in order to promote sustainable development in the region. To do so, CCCYD offers educational opportunities, vocational training, financial literacy education, and community-building assistance to those who live in the Solwezi District. The Charity Centre for Children and Youth Development (CCCYD) hopes to expand significantly in the future in order to assist the greatest number of the vulnerable population in the Solwezi District as possible. Over the next five years, CCCYD will work to expand its funding in both the grant and crowdfunding sectors with the goal of using this funding to build more classrooms, hire more teachers, and offer more levels of education to students. Furthermore, CCCYD hopes to expand its skill development offerings and provide the chance for members of its community to gain certifications in skills like sewing, carpentry, and computer service. Lastly, CCCYD wants to increase its capacity to promote women's empowerment and financial success in the region.
