Relief Supplies

Thank you to all who have collected supplies for distribution in Zambia! Your generosity has been overwhelming! If you are holding supplies that you have collected please click here. Due to the rising costs of fuel, we have suspended future shipments and therefore cannot accept any new donations. If you or your group would like to help the children we serve, find out how you can help!

Every year we ship close to 20 tons of relief supplies to benefit widows, orphans and vulnerable children in Zambia. Every donation is valuable and greatly appreciated. These village girls were thrilled to receive a new dress, sewn by loving hands thousands of miles away.
