Since its founding in 2014, UP Zambia has reached out to correctional facilities across Zambia to support children in custody. With temperatures that drop down to as low as 2C/34F, keeping warm through a long night in a cell is difficult.
This year, UP Zambia will go to 9 facilities across 4 provinces. We need your help to provide warm clothing toiletries, hot meals, and drinks to over 500 children to keep them warm this cold season. Our outreach brings essential items, celebration, and hope.
Starting the end of June throug early July the UP Zambia team will be visiting facilities in:
We appreciate your past support for children during cold season and Christmas and hope you can join us again to support these children and recognize their humanity in the midst of a difficult environment.
We look forward to sharing updates with you as our 2026 Cold Season outreach unfolds!
