Sponsor a container

To expand our libraries in Zambia, we purchase a second-hand shipping container which we then pack with books and educational materials and send it to Zambia. The books are shared out among many schools and our libraries, and the container itself will be converted to form a new branch library. Each container costs about €5,000.00

Why not sponsor a share in the next containter?

Sending a shipping container to Zambia costs about €12,000.00. Would you sponsor part of the cost of sending our next container?

We can also faciliate corporate donors with your company logo or branding featuring prominently on a container and photographs of the container in Zambia.

Sponsor a Librarian

Would you sponsor a librarian’s salary for six months at €950.00 or a full year at €1,900.00? Our librarians are the final link in the chain to make our projects work.

Let there be light with solar panels

Zambia’s electricity infrastructure has failed. There is now almost no public electricity supply available nation-wide so we need to install solar power in our libraries to facilitate basic lighting and the ability to charge up laptops.

Could you sponsor a solar installation? Each solar installation for a container with four solar panels, inverter and battery will cost us about €3,500.00 installed. Each panel costs about €140.00 installed.
