DescAfrican Vision of Hope's vision is for every child and family in Zambia to be released from extreme poverty and have the ability to fulfill the purpose God has for their lives. Starting 22 years ago with 23 students on a dirt floor in a rented tavern to 3,873 students in 2021, thousands of vulnerable children's lives have been impacted with a Christ-centered education. In 2021, African Vision of Hope earned the esteemed honor of becoming an approved Testing Center by the Examinations Counsil of Zambia. Other examination fees were paid for 7th, 9th, and 12th grade students to participate in testing qualifications to move onto the next grade. The five African Vision of Hope school campuses were provided with multiple new classrooms, over 100 new desks, fresh paint, regular building maintenance, new printers and printing supplies, computers, and other chemistry lab supplies. Robotics clubs continue to grow and thrive at three campuses.Also, in 2021, African Vision of Hope employed 163 caring teachers and staff who provided physical, intellectual and spiritual guidance. In 2021, 135 students completed their high school education bringing the total high school graduates to over 900. Higher education & technology are vital to the development of Zambia, building a workforce of doctors, engineers, lawyers, and entrepreneurs, requiring drivers and flexible learning programs going beyond basic literacy. In 2021, 47 students were provided college scholarships, bringing the total to 172 college scholarships awarded. Nine men and women were given scholarships for seminary training and three more graduated bringing the total to 59.Desc

DescAfrican Vision of Hope continues digging new deep-water wells, including four in 2021, ensuring clean water for every school and rescue home. Also, 18 private toilets were installed in 2021. Proper toilets and hand washing stations keep children in school and helps girls manage their personal needs with dignity and safety. Over 10,000 children and families benefit from these clean water points each day. Along with our staff, these children and families continue to receive hygiene training, sanitation and HIV/AIDS education.African Vision of Hope built new kitchens at three locations in 2021. Over 1,086,792 vitamin and protein fortified meals were provided to vulnerable and orphaned school children, keeping them in school rather than dropping out to look for ways to acquire food. These nutritious meals allow them to concentrate on their studies and are life changing on their overall health.In 2021, African Vision of Hope provided basic medical care to 3,873 children for treatable illnesses such as vaccinations and malaria testing through an onsite medical clinic and an on-staff nurse who traveled between schools. Healthy kids learn better and these children are the future of Zambia.Desc

DescIn Zambia, African Vision of Hope employs experienced tradesmen; women who for the Hope Trades & Training program to teach sewing, knitting, craft skills, agriculture, welding and carpentry, and small business to adults living in poverty and have not completed their education. The sewing program, now self-sustaining and producing income for the ministry in Zambia, delivered over 1,000 uniforms and hundreds of knitted sweaters across the African Vision of Hope school campuses. The welding and carpentry vocational training programs, also self-sustaining, are teaching young men and women hands-on job skills. This team is making high-quality desks for the classrooms and welding strong, beautiful gates for African Vision of Hope campuses and other retail customers.African Vision of Hope's Rescue Care expansion continued with phase 1 construction of four rescue homes to provide shelter and care for 96 orphaned and vulnerable children. The construction also included two bath houses (one for females, one for males) with private showers and toilets, house parent quarters, kitchen and community building. Appliances and generators were purchased for several Rescue Homes. Beside the physical buildings for the children in Rescue Care, African Vision of Hope hired and trained 8 Child Protection Officers to advocate for and rescue vulnerable children from child trafficking, child marriage, child labor and horrific abuse and neglect. These Child Protection Officers establish relationships with community social services, police and local leaders to bring immediate action and protection of children in need.African Vision of Hope services impact surrounding communities with a total population of over 418,800.Desc
