Zambia Orphans Aid Uk - Zoa-Uk

Working with partners ZOA-UK supports around 1, 800 Zambian orphans and other vulnerable children and youths to access education each year. Many live in extremely deprived households, surviving on less than US$1 per day.

Zambia is one of the most deprived and unequal countries and has been hugely affected by the social consequences of AIDS. The country has approximately 1. 2 million orphans and other vulnerable children, in a population of just 17 million. Education is prohibitive for many due to the cost of fees and compulsory uniforms, books and stationary.

We support children to access and remain in education, whenever possible. We also fund school feeding and development programmes.

ZOA-UK reaches vulnerable children by working in partnership with grassroots community groups and schools. We also seed-fund these partners’ income generating activities to help them move away from reliance on foreign aid.
