It takes a very big village to support a school of 350 students and in particular a classrom for 50 children. We never anticipated such growth ten years ago when we reached out to 30 children orphaned by AIDS ranging from 5 years old to 14. Our school has grown by leaps and bounds and now we have a K-6 school with lots and lots of children attending free of charge. Your support helps us to keep the project going and to ensure that these children not only stay in school but have the materials and curriculum they need to be successful.
Jeremiah is one of our students. He walks half an hour to Chikumbuso everyday. He says he would not miss a day of school because there is so much that Chikumbuso does for him. Jeremiah appreciates that his school is free, his lunch is free and the books in the library are free to be loaned out. The teachers care to make sure that everyone is learning and understands the material. He wants to be a firefighter when he grows up. Help us ensure Jeremiah's education by sponsoring a class. Your help will encourage many students to succeed in school.
