As we hunker down this winter in the Northern Hemisphere, in Zambia our students are sweltering. They leave the hot dusty streets of Ngombe and walk with relief into the Chikumbuso compound where we have fresh running water to drink, cool classrooms with lots of windows, and a welcoming atmosphere that reduces temperatures and calms spirits.
It's hard to overestimate how much they will miss coming to Chikumbuso during their Christmas break. The regular meals, the access to internet and books, the camaraderie, the safety. These are things we take for granted, but that are a special relief for our students from the heat and misery that surrounds them.
By sponsoring a classroom, you are making sure that we continue to be a place of relief and learning. Your support ensures we have the supplies we need to keep educating our kids. We hope you will be a "cool breeze" for our students this year!
