A child who had lost both parents was found by a young man, whilst visiting his parents at a fishing village a long way from town. The boy caught fish in order to survive, because he had no one to look after him. Fortunately the young man brought him to PIZZ School asking if they would allow him to enrol. He is joining many other children with their own stories at the school, where now at last there will be people keeping an eye on him, and he will get a meal each day.
I am just coming to the end of a two month visit here in Zambia. I have been so impressed by the way every child is given individual attention at the school and any issues are followed up with the guardians. This care is rewarded with good attendance at school and excellent academic results.
Some who haven't necessarily been very successful academically are now employed as builders, shop assistants and one is even now a vicar.
