The Kafue Gospel Singers (KGS) has adopted 150 Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVCs) whom they are educating.
KGS Director George Chungu says his organisation is at the moment concentrating on advocating for bettering the lives of the vulnerable.
Mr. Chungu said his organisation has since initiated a supply of education teaching aid materials as well as the feeding programe for the 150 orphans.
Mr. Chungu revealed his organisation has partnered with the Churches Health Association (CHAZ) and Zambia Orphans of AIDS (ZOA – Zambia Chapter) in catering for the vulnerable children.
“As KGS, we are not only promoting music but also supplementing government efforts in key sectors like education by uplifting the welfare of OVCs and currently we are looking after 150 vulnerable children in Kafues surrounding compounds,” Mr. Chungu said.
Mr. Chungu described the escalating HIV/AIDS as a time bomb that will erupt very soon as evident from the increasing number of street kids from Zambia Compound, Kafue community and Soloboni areas.

LT, please post some ‘better’ stories than this. Is there nothing serious happening home? I hope this adoption will be for life….
Listen to yourself my brother.This certainly is a good gesture and i don’t expect such mediocre statements.It just confirms the levels of mediocrity in certain people.Be upright and give credit where its due.
You need Jesus my dear.
Stop hating on people that are stepping up to do good things in Zambia for Zambians. There is no better story than this one about 150 children who have lost their parents have someone care for them. Major what a callous thing to say, are you for real?
Its not the question of hating but the integrity that goes on with this noble cause we have seen so many orphanages springing up from all corners not necessarily wanting to help but with the motives behind. How many orphanages are in Kafue which they can combine efforts with by supporting them instead of forming a new one?
Incredibly asinine comment. Grow up.
Nice move guys! Thats the fastest way to get funding! Adopt orphans and the donors will give you money…in Dollars. After a few months, you can announce that all the orphans have run away. Ni pa Zed. We know these things.
It’s sad to see how the Colonial mentality has seeped into our generation. Please, learn to have confidence in your kind, that is the only way we will move forward as a people, as a nation. Zambians can do good all by themselves, we dont need no imperialists all up in our business.
And what have you done to solve this problem?
Big up ba KGS, this will bring Glory to God’s name. may he richly bless you so that you continue with the good works you have started.
Amen! Hope they are not looking for a way of enriching themselves at the expense of these poor orphans.
Ni more money in their pockets!
Why is there so much negativity for a noble cause……Ya abena Zambia we just love blubbering and not acting, what have done for the orphans that your relatives have left i bet some of you shine wherever you are but u don’t want to support your own relatives…Just give credit where it’s due even if it’s a gimmick of enriching themselves they are doing a noble cause and i don’t see anything wrong wit that..People are just full negative criticism here even if someone goes to the loo u will complain…..Yall all make me sick
Just listen to yourself. Give credit even if its a gimmick? Its people like you who adored FTJs theft because you gave credit to his crap. You, my friend, are off-side!!
Who said anything about chiluba?Problem with you is that u just criticize for the sake of doing it.Just so u know i am not Bemba and NEVER adored Ka Kafupi…
Thank God !!! Hope it is here to stay. We dont want a situation were children will be abandoned because of s i l l y excuses! and as ba Moze has already said… no enriching yourselves at the expense of orphans or you will be answerable to God.
This is a good example. Let RB adopt some too.
