Project launch

We are proud to announce the launch of the Ubuyantanshi project, which will support 40 trainees with practical skills, mentorship, and start-up resources to foster entrepreneurship and improve household livelihoods.  30 trainees will join our Vocational Training programme to learn their choice of Tailoring & Fashion Design or Catering & Hospitality.

The Ubuyantashi project with our partner, Eliashib Restoration Organisation, is designed to empower vulnerable female-headed households in Old Mushili and Kaloko communities of Ndola.  Our project will equip them with vocational skills and business training, alongside reproductive health education and financial management skills.

Tailoring Trainees will develop skills in garment construction, body measurement, stitching, machine handling and finishing techniques. They will produce dresses, shirts, uniforms and children’s clothing- products in high local demand

Catering Trainees will gain a thorough understanding of food preparation, baking, hygiene and storage. Working closely with our General Agriculture trainees, they will produce a range of dishes and snacks, including pastries, samosas, and fruit salads. Training in plating, menu design, customer service and professional standards will prepare them for work in events catering and the hospitality industry.

We’re excited to drive lasting change and economic empowerment from the grassroots up.
