Summer is coming! Much like the children here in the United States, kids in Zambia are getting excited for a little time off, even if there are quite a few differences between the two. In the US, kids are getting ready for camp, pools, beach time, and lazy days. In Zambia, many of our students are using their time off to help their moms with the other children, to earn a bit of money to help pay for school, and begging us to let them back in the doors!
That's right, Chikumbuso is a safe place for our students, full of laughter, friends, and people who love them. They would much rather be at Chikumbuso then out on the streets or in their tiny homes. That's why we continue to open our doors and let them use our amazing library, study center, and playground.
When you sponsor a classroom at Chikumbuso, you actually are sponsoring a safe, fun, learning environment that lasts far beyond the ten months of school. Please consider supporting our community center by sponsoring a classroom and getting kids to a place they love.
