Our Vision
We envision a future where every child—regardless of poverty, orphan hood, or neglect—has the opportunity not just to survive, but to thrive.
To break the cycle of poverty, we provide free, high-quality education, holistic care (including nutrition, shelter, emotional support, and medical access), and a safe haven for children who have experienced abuse or neglect.
Our Beginnings
The project began in 2009 when Joyce Chimbila started a feeding program for disadvantaged children. It grew into a primary school, expanding grade by grade. Today, students are supported through high school and into tertiary or vocational education.
In 2022, three original students were admitted to Northrise University and a fourth, to the Ndola Skills Training Centre. The University students will graduate in 2025. And Ben who had trained as a chef, has returned to work at the school as a chef.
Our Growth
- In 2022, the Blair Wing (four classrooms) was completed and the entire school from Old Mushili relocated at Kaloko.
- A new kitchen was also built that year.
- In 2024 the Dining Hall and Tailoring & Design Centre were completed and are both tremendous asserts.
- A Workshop Skills Centre with two additional classrooms is now under construction.
- The Kaloko farm—featuring a vegetable garden, piggery, and cattle—teaches students life skills and contributes to food security.
- In 2024, the school celebrated it’s 15th Our secretary Ken and his wife Kathy travelled to Zambia to join in the festivities.
