Where you can make a difference...
Education Sponsorship
Children are sponsored to attend the school that they are already attending/enrolled in, or their nearest suitable school. Most Zambian families can only afford to send one child off to school. Sponsorship opportunities are available for Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Schooling.
School Support
Many schools have been established with the aim of providing education to poor, vulnerable and orphaned children in the local communities and villages. Living Hope get the privilege of helping develop these schools and deliver them some of the amazing donations of books, uniforms and food stuffs that generous people donate.
Baby Unit
A home, which is built in the Chingola South area to care for orphaned babies and children. Many Zambian women suffer from complications of child-birth, or chronic illnesses, which frequently result in death and the orphaning of their very young children.
Feed a Family
For many Zambian families even putting enough food on the table for their children can be a challenge. Just $55 AUD can provide additional food support to a family of 6-7 with Nshima (maize meal), meat and vegetables and will ensure their children have sufficient quality meals for a month.
Fipuya Training Farm
With the addition of 3 training huts, Living Hope have the capacity to host trainee farmers for up to 3 months of intensive, on site training. Annual field days also provide the opportunity to provide small-scale farmers with ideas, training and farming techniques to implement on their own property.

Where does my money go?
Money received for sponsorship is used primarily, unless otherwise arranged with you, to help support your sponsored child through their education. The vast majority of money received goes towards paying school fees & school expenses (such as PTA or exam fees), purchasing uniforms, or purchasing stationery supplies.
We conduct school and home visits of all our sponsored children when needed and regularly host many of our sponsored children and/or their families for counselling, support, discipleship and general visits. Your sponsorship may help to cover the transport costs of us caring for your sponsored child in this way.
We may also utilise a small portion of money received to help us with our accountability and record keeping, and in order to provide you with current information about your sponsored child, new photos and good updates.
If we have made arrangements with you, your sponsored child and their family may also receive monthly payments to help cover living costs of food, clothing, rent and other home expenses. This is not usually included.
