ZAMBIA SCHOLARSHIP FUND

The Zambia Scholarship Fund was founded by Peggy Rogers in 2000 after returning from a visit to Zambia to reunite with a friend from college. Peggy was deeply struck by the severe need for education, especially amongst young children who often had no choice other than to abandon their studies in order to work and help their families. Peggy was so stuck that she made it her life mission to help these children help themselves. In 2010 they raised $173,553 for young students in Zambia and closed 2011 at around $190,000.

What do they do in Zambia?

  • They support education in the poorest and remote areas of Zambia by providing scholarships to students to attend high school (public education in Zambia is only free up to the seventh grade) and college.
  • They hire teachers to teach elementary education in poor and remote villages that have gone without teachers for many years.
  • They supply books, teacher’s kits and other support materials to help our sponsored schools prosper.
  • They send students to high school that otherwise could not afford to attend school at all.
  • They send eager students to teacher’s colleges and send them to teach in poor and rural villages
