2006 – 2008 WWAM Project – A Heart for Zambia

The goal for the 2006-08 WWAM project is to provide funds to improve and expand the Nyamphande Orphanage near Lusaka, Zambia, in central Africa. The " Nyamphande Miracle Village" has operated since 1998 as part of Church of God World Missions. It is directed by Bishop John Mambo, former overseer of Zambia, and presently serves over 700 children.

The current project will provide additional dormitories to house more children, additional classrooms to accommodate more students, specialized classrooms to teach high school students, and staff housing to serve the needs of additional teachers and workers.

Nyamphande Orphanage is providing children an environment in which to survive. They are being housed, fed, educated, and discipled. The new facilities will allow even more orphaned and abandoned children to survive and thrive. Nyamphande is in the "bush" about 40 miles from the city of Lusaka. Almost 90% of the population lives below the poverty level. Proper health care is difficult to obtain. According to UNAIDS, 650,000 children in Zambia have been orphaned by AIDS. By 2010, one out of every four Zambian children is expected to be orphaned. Malnutrition remains a major cause of death and illness in children under five because of contaminated water and chronic food shortages. Your donation will help reclaim a childhood. Give Zambia's children permission to dream.
