Our Impact Zambia team 2023 is planning to visit Zambia July 26 to Aug 11, 2023. We will be focusing on working on the Life Impact Training Centre and continue equipping leaders for their ministries (abnormal psychology, narrative therapy, trauma, first aid, etc.). People will be coming from remote areas to join us for the week of activities, and we hope to give the training centre a fresh coat of paint too.
We cover as much of the transport and food expenses for those who will be joining us for the week of training and activities. We will also need to purchase materials for maintenance activities on the training centre. God willing, we will be working on the planning of the development of the training centre campus to meet the Zambian training authority standards.
Your support will lessen the financial burden on the individual team members and support the work in Zambia. While there, we will be posting updates.
The purpose of going as a team, is not just providing support and teaching, but to grow in our understanding of the life and challenges in Zambia, and to come back sharing the story and plight of those with less opportunities.
Impact Zambia helps rural churches and communities flourish by providing Leadership and Skills training.
WHO WE HELP
Impact Zambia works in partnership with local leaders to help some of the poorest communities in rural areas of southwestern Zambia. Its programs are primarily operated through New Life Tabernacle (founded in 1994 and headquartered in Itezhi, Zambia) and its 20+ branch churches.
Established in 2012, Impact Zambia’s first project was to build a facility that doubled up as an office and school on the site of the Itezhi-tezhi church, and to build new church buildings in Mumbwa and Namwala. Through partnerships with Canadian and South African churches, Rotary International, and International Teams Canada, they have since expanded their programs to include community development initiatives designed to break the cycle of poverty through education and vocational training.
WHAT WE DO
The life-changing vocational Training Centre in Itezhi-tezhi grew up out of a sewing club, which has provided sewing and business training to women in partnership with Rotary International. The need for skills and leadership development, resulted in the construction of a multi-purpose training centre, which offers classes in leadership training as well as employable skills like sewing, agriculture, woodworking, building dams, and mechanical repair.
