Pathways Out of Poverty for Youth in Africa

Changing lives through educational support is one such program so close to our hearts. The feeling is so heartwarming and fulfilling.  

This is an amusing true life story Rhodah Mvula who is a former sponsor and sponsor a future beneficiary.

This is what she had to say when we made a follow up of what she is currently doing after completing her high school through sponsor a child and sposnor a future. Not only was she sponsored in her school but also further helped to study a course in Hotel Management at one of the most prominent skills training center called Youth Community Training Centre.

She is now a cashier in one of the big Chinese shops in Livingstone and doing so well. We asked her how she feels with the support and this is what she had to say……. ‘I am very grateful to African Impact Foundation and more especially the sponsors that supported me all the way as back as when I was in G6 (Primary School) through to high school and training centre. Without the sponsors, I would not be where am today. I have my own earnings and I can make tangible decisions about my life all because I was lifted from my deep pit by African Impact Foundation and partners. Apart from working, I am now happily married with two kids and have a job’.

She further encouraged those on sponsorship not to take donor support lightly, but strive to study hard because not everyone has the chance to be sponsored, count yourself lucky if you are being supported she said
