MORE ABOUT US

WHAT WE DO

We support programs that provide real opportunities to people in Zambia, from feeding children to building classrooms to teaching women to sew.

ABOUT US

We started as a simple attempt to help people, using money from a monthly pop-up shop selling home baking in the south of Scotland. Now we want to help even more.

GET INVOLVED

There is so much opportunity, and donating money or offering help can make a real difference to people who really need it. We're just ordinary people like you - come join in!

GET INVOLVED
AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE

If you can help in any way we would appreciate it so much - it truly changes lives.

  • GET INVOLVED

    Contact us if you would like to help with our work. We'd love to hear from you!

  • MAKE A DONATION

    There is so much opportunity to do great good, but funds are the limiting factor. Even a small donation could make a big difference.

    You can give easily and securely through our Total Giving donation page.

THE STORY OF MIRACLE

During a visit to Zambia, Miracle's mother brought him to meet us. He had brain damage at birth but it has only affected him physically not mentally.

An extremely kind donor provided money very quickly and Miracle was taken to see a specialist. He now has a weekly feeding program and physiotherapy twice a week and a walking frame made for him as the one he had was made of scaffolding poles.

The latest update is that he has a free scholarship to school 4 days a week which is wonderful, and in the latest photo we have he is looking so much healthier.

Stories like this inspire us to keep going. Lives are changed forever.
