Meet the Artists!

One of the activities we're introducing into the schools in Zambia is art.  In order to draw you obviously need paper and pencils/crayons, etc.  Such a luxury!  Given the tools, however, the kids do amazing work.  We are now taking the art work and making notecards to sell for the schools. 

Now meet a couple of our artists:


Artist Lenge



Artist Theresa

For the past three years, Theresa has been attending the Chipulukusu Young Peacemaker’s School, where she enjoys learning with her friends.  She is a 13 year-old-student in grade 5 who likes the subject English the best.  Because she has five sisters and three brothers Theresa never thought she would go to school until the Young Peacemakers School opened.  Her dream is to study law one day.



 Lenge is 13 years and in grade four.  He could not afford to attend school when he was younger, so the Kasompe Community School of Peace has given him an opportunity he never thought possible.  He started school in Grade 2 and has since learned to read and write—this is a huge accomplishment!  Lenge is the last born in a single Mother family and wants to be a Clinic Officer when he grows up so he can

help other people.
