Founded by Derek Keir and Fiona Campbell, two sport and education professionals who wish to improve the lives and education of young people in the developing world.  We are continually searching for funding to maintain and develop our programmes that offer a bright future to each of the participants. Additionally we rely on the support and enthusiasm of volunteers in the UK and America to assist our fundraising efforts.

Why and how we do it.

One of our schools
One of our schools
More than 100million children worldwide drop out of school before completing just four years of primary school and two thirds of them girls (United Nations 1995). Over two thirds of the population in Zambia live on less than 55p a day. That’s 7.5 million people. Schooling is not free and can cost as much as £50 per year.

We support the work of EduSport and its Peer Leader programme by organising fund-raising events, managing sponsorship programmes and supporting and funding individual projects to contribute to the cost of education for young volunteers in Zambia.
