Happy New Year! We hope this final report for 2023 finds you well. What a remarkable year it has been for Chance4all! Our mission at Chance4all remains the same as we continue to bring out-of-school children back to the educational system, so we're thrilled to share that we are extending our sponsorship to an additional 5 students and expanding our sensitization workshops outside of Lusaka with more topics such as climate change education.
Recognition to outstanding girl students
We are incredibly proud of our girl students with their remarkable achievements this term in obtaining higher grades and emerging as truly exceptional students. Their dedication and hard work have shone brightly, and they serve as a shining example of what determination and passion can achieve. But their achievements would not have been possible without the dedicated teachers from Chance4All who have been instrumental in guiding and supporting our students on this journey. Their unwavering commitment to their education has made all the difference.
Climate Change education
In recognition of the effects of Climate Change in the world, we are committed to doing our bit by sharing knowledge with Chance4all students with the hope that they will in turn share this with the community. Dedicated students and staff are happy to participate monthly, with Leopards Hill Mall and many other different organizations, in the Clean-Up program “clean and green" which takes place every month within the Bauleni compound. Waste and landfills contribute to climate change and the community has decided that it will act together for the greater good and fight against climate change.
Teacher’s day
We expressed our heartfelt gratitude to all the dedicated teachers and staff at Chance4all. Their unwavering commitment to education and nurturing young minds is truly commendable. This project to Educate Gilrs in Zambia on Gender Equity would not be possible and so successful without their dedication and hard work. We hope they had a fantastic Teachers' Day.
Last workshop of the year
Finally, our last workshop, in October 2023, was held at Bauleni Special Needs school and it was attended by about 40 boys and girls. This workshop provided the much-needed information to the Secondary pupils on the issues affecting both girls and boys. We had professionals give presentations on Menstrual education, Reproductive health, Personal hygiene, Mental health, Drug abuse and Climate change. Our hope is to continue these workshops in 2024, with your continued support to allow us to take on other schools outside of Lusaka.
