Training has been suspended for some time now (since May 2020) due to the pandemic but the project has had a positive impact on the local community despite this. The centre has continued operations and is still helping disadvantaged children and young people in other ways.
For example, members of the knitting club (pictured above) have utilized the opportunity to meet in order to study and prepare for their examinations. This helps them revise as they are unable to attend full classes due to the pandemic.
Ezekiel (pictured below) recently joined Kali to acquire skills in agriculture. He completed grade 12 at Chisamba Secondary last year but his parents cannot afford to pay for his college fees. As a result, he has opted to work for Kaliyangile as a poultry man in order to raise college fees and support his parents to pay school fees for his siblings.
As we prepare to resume training in the near future, we hope to empower many more with skills for sustainability!
