Provision of Primary Educational
I wish to report that, the organization has continued to offer primary education at Fortune School of Excellence located in Humphrey Mulemba Villa Park along Kansanshi Smelter Road.
As at March 2023, the organization has enrolled over 400 children from grade to seven.
Provision of primary education for orphans and vulnerable children is one of the core objectives of the organization. Since 2017, the organization has continued to provide primary educational to orphans and vulnerable children in Solwezi District of Zambia. So far, the organization has supported over 1500 students from Grade one to seven at Fortune School of Excellence owned by the organization in Solwezi
Access to education is the dream of every child in the community, however due to both social and economical challenges some children are unable to attend school. This is the more reason why CCCYD established Fortune School of Excellence to offer educational support to children in need. In 2022, the school has a total enrollement of 425 children from Grade one to Seven.
Besides the provision of primary education, we are also offering basic computer skills and virtual mentorship in partnership with Village Book Builders and Tech for Change.
The project is helping educate orphans and vulnerable children allowing them to remain in school and improve on their life. This will reduce the burden on guardians who have taken up the responsibilities of taking care of orphans left behind by their relatives and this will also reduce poverty and crime in the community which is on increase as a result of children being found on the street.
Thank you all our donors for supporting our cause!

CCCYD has also continued to offer virtual learning programs in partnership with Village Book Builders which is based in the USA to supplement and enhance access to free virtual mentorship which has so far improved the academic performance of all the pupils participating in the program
CCCYD, working in partnership with Deutsche Sparkassenstiftung für internationale Kooperation e.V. German Sparkassenstiftung for International Cooperation (DSIK), had in 2021 trained over 235 small scale farmers and micro entrepreneurs using a Business Simulation Game. The significance of this is that it is helping to improve the financial literacy education among small scale farmers and micro entrepreneurs.
Fortune School of Excellence is owned by Charity Centre for Children and Youth Development (CCCYD). The school was established to provide basic primary education to orphans and vulnerable children in Solwezi Distric of Zambia. For the past two years, the school has recorded 100% pass rate for Grade seven. The current enrolment stands at over 370 pupils. The number of pupils has gone down due to school closures as a result of the Coronavirus. However, our organization has also continued to provide virtual learning to supplement normal school learning program in partnership with Village Book Builders (VBB).
In addition to the learning programs, the organization is also helping girls with free sanitary pads. Globally women and girls have developed their own personal strategies to cope with menstruation. These vary greatly from country to country, and within countries, dependent on an individual’s personal preferences, available resources, economic status, local traditions and cultural beliefs and knowledge or education. Due to these restrictions women often manage menstruation with methods that could be unhygienic or inconvenient. Some girls have dropped out of school due to saniatry hugine issues, hence our organization developing this program to help girls with the reusable sanitray pads.
Our organization was also supported with with Borehole by the Kansanshi Mine in the Month of August 2021.
