We support hundreds of kids in Zambia.

This trip is an amazing opportunity to experience a different culture, see the work of Drop Inn Zambia and meet the children and teachers we support. It’s a chance to get out of your comfort zone and try something new.

We will also visit partner projects in the capital city Lusaka and Kabwe.
