Impact Able - Lifesong Zambia

***Impact Zambia Update: 26 commitments - 6 days to go! Will you consider joining the IMPACT?

Hi. I'm Able. I am 14 years old. I live with my mother's sister.  I have lived with her for 2 years.  My mother died when i was 5 years old.  Also, my little cousins, Marleen and Bethshaba, attend Lifesong school in Baby Class. I am in grade 7. My aunt sells vegtables outside our home to help earn an income. Thank you for helping Lifesong.

Able is one of the students that will be entering into the 8th grade.  As of now, we have no classrooms available for him and the other 21 grade 7 students. Will you help build a new classroom for Able so that he can continue school this fall and be part of the 5% of Zambia children that is able to attend High School?

Join Impact Zambia 100 to help build new classrooms for our students...

"Hi.  My name is Richard.  I am in grade 7.  I stay with my sister, Josephine.  I have three brothers and two sisters.  My other sister attends Lifesong and is in grade 5.  Her name is Emelia.  My mother stays in a village far away.  My father died in 2006.  Thank you for supporting me and may God bless you and add more days to your life.  My favorite subject is art."

 

Richard is just ONE of the 253 students that we are blessed to serve at Lifesong Zambia.  He is also one of the students that will be moving on to grade 8 this fall.  

 

 

Without the construction of new classrooms, Richard may join the 95% of Zambian children that are not able to attend High School. 

 

Will you join us in impacting the lives of children like Richard?

To add to the excitement--thanks to a generous donor, all donations will be matched up to $225,000!!

Make a difference in ONE life!

2011 Gifts of Purpose from Lifesong for Orphans on Vimeo.

It's that time of year again. Holiday music rings through your speaker systems. Decorations light up your street corners. Families gather together.It's the season of love, joy and family.  

As we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ during this season of giving, we often forget to give to those who NEED it most! 

This year give differently. Give FAMILYto the 147 million orphans worldwide who dream of belonging. Give HOPE to children living on the streets whose only Christmas wish is survival.

What if, this year, your family gave a gift to those who need it most? A gift that won't fit under the tree? 

Would you consider making a difference in ONE LIFE...

•  Help a child break free from gripping poverty.

•  Give the love of Jesus through Christian mentors.

•  Give a future to an orphan's caregiver.

This year join Lifesong for Orphans in giving a gift with purpose. A gift that will speak Jesus to a child.  

Introducing...

Give Purpose. Bring Joy. 

What's the last $7 you spent?

Meet Teku

Teku is 8 years-old, though due to malnutrition he seems much younger.  Rickets has caused his legs to bow inward making it almost impossible to walk.  

Recently our Lifesong Ethiopia directors, Gary and Peggy Ifft, took Teku to Cure Hospital in Addis Ababa to have surgery on his legs, so he can walk normally.  After his first surgery, Teku's father wasn't able to afford crutches for him, so Gary and Peggy spent the $7 US for them.

Seven dollars!  And you can see by the joy in his eyes, how this small contribution made a BIG difference for Teku.

What about you?  We don't always have to give big, but we are ALWAYS called to give.  What are some ways you can make a big difference by giving in small ways?  I'd love to hear your ideas!
