2024 FOCUS FOR GIVING 〰️

In January 2022, we opened Mapalo Bread of Life Secondary School, a 3-classroom building for grade 8.

Our goal is to add one grade per year.

Expansion of the school is necessary to accommodate grades 9-12 and will be done in two phases of construction.

Phase one of the construction will add 3 classrooms to accommodate grades 9 and 10. Completion for phase one is scheduled for December 2023 for the 2024 school year.

The cost of Phase one is $30,000

What sets us apart

Our organization does not send anyone overseas to work in Zambia, nor do we dictate what the people we work with need to do. We work mutually with our Zambian partner, Advocacy and Development for the Poor (ADP), to create goals for the betterment of the local people and community. 

We strongly believe that the Zambian people possess the ability to do everything they need in order for their communities to become the best they can be.

Every human being needs support at some point in time. Helping others help themselves is what we aim to do.

Support Sustain Succeed Zambia (S3Z) provides the financial resources for specific educational and community projects in the community they serve. We are completely volunteer staffed and 100% of all contributions go directly to the programs supported by our organizations.

The local Zambians perform the tasks that are required to accomplish that work. Local teachers teach in the school, local contractors and laborers build the school, and the local non-governmental organization that we have partnered with is there to physically direct and oversee all the work that is being accomplished.

“I must say their passion is contagious! Working with a local NGO here in Zambia they have been touching lives, as young and old have received financial and material assistance. I am aware, in particular, that the community of Mapalo in Ndola, Zambia has benefited immensely, starting from shelter, food supplements, school requirements for children from vulnerable families.”
