The dream was laid out by the widows of Chikumbuso about three years ago when they were asked what their hopes and dreams were for the project in the coming years. The widows had several dreams but one in particular was to have a new seventh grade classroom. Seventh grade in Zambia marks the end of elementary school and is a year where all students must take a written test to see if they can move on to the upper levels of Middle school and then High school.
This year through the generous gift of two of our volunteers the seventh grade classroom is being built. We are so thrilled that the hearts of the widows are being heard and that dreams do come true.
What we need is help from you in classroom sponsorship. With this gift comes the need for more funds to furnish the room, buy supplies and pay for a new teacher's salary. Please consider helping us finish up the room and get it ready for our sixth graders when they "move up" and start a new school year in January 2016.
