Zambia Children’s Village
“Breath of Heaven”
The AIDS/HIV endemic has greatly effected the people of Sub-Sahara Africa. Twenty million adults have died from the disease and some fifteen million children are orphaned. 130,000 orphans are reported to live on the streets of Lusaka alone.
In April of 2005, twenty acres of land was purchased for a Children’s Village. There will be twelve homes with twelve children and a housemother in each. In addition there will be a school and a clinic. Construction of our first home will begin in July 2006.
In addition to our league, local athlete, Ryky Tran races to raise awareness & support for this amazing opportunity to change the world. He will be running, biking & swimming 120 miles a week to raise money for these orphans.
