Annual Report
Dedicated to Success
Over the past 23 years various AFSIA founders have been involved in working with the vulnerable children and the elderly of Zambia through local pastors. We have seen the impact small and big gestures can make in the lives of those who would otherwise be forgotten and abandoned.
Supporting education and bringing hope
student Sponsorship
AFSIA works to advocate for children who are orphaned and abandoned by giving them the opportunity at a valuable education. With the help of people like you, these kids have their supplies, uniforms, and school fees paid for.
Bible Camp Sponsorship
Once a year, AFSIA holds a month long Bible camp for children in junior high and high school. While learning about the Bible and God's love for them, these young students also learn team building abilities, practical life tools such as cooking, gardening, and construction skills, as well as learning to value themselves and others around them, becoming young leaders in their communities with a new found confidence and vision.
Student Service Projects
Poverty and Illness often leave young children and the elderly the most vulnerable. AFSIA is able to give young people the opportunity to serve the elderly in their communities with bringing food, doing chores, and offering help with housing and garden work, as well as bringing light and encouragement into these often forgotten men and women's lives. In helping others, the children also are able to feel useful and needed in their community.
Shipping Books and Bibles
For most of the population, books and Bibles are not easy to obtain in Zambia. AFSIA has sent over 15,000 books over the last several years for children and adults to enjoy and grow in learning, and to help fight illiteracy.
Here are some examples of the books we have sent for literacy programs. AFSIA accepts Bibles and children’s book donations for shipments made twice a year. If you would like to donate books or donate towards shipment costs, please contact us.
Mitenge Village Secondary School
AFSIA just completed the second wing of a secondary school in the rural village of Mitenge so that up to 200 local children can have the opportunity to attend school during their secondary grade levels. In the past, children needed to attend school away from home after grade 7, leaving many of them vulnerable to falling out of school.
