Luketekelo, (a Kaonde name meaning “faith as everything in this foundation is done by faith”) is a NonProfit Foundation with the vision of bringing transformation in to rural schools and communities in North-western province of Zambia, through the implementation of sustainable initiatives that will bring hope and enduring change to our people. Nelson Mandela said, “Education is the most powerful weapon that we can use to change the world”. We believe that education and women empowerment is the foundation of society and that transformation must start with our children and women. As a foundation, Education, Unemployment and Poverty are the primary focus areas of our initiatives to empower individuals, families and communities. Technology and Skills Development will be key drivers of success and will underpin each initiative. We cannot achieve this alone and need to partner with Private and Public-sector business and Government in order to achieve our goals

TRANSFORMING LIVES IS ABOUT EMPOWERING OTHERS. In order for individuals to support themselves. The Luketekelo women empowerment program gives long term benefits with skills development, promoting independence and sustainability. Enhancing a person’s quality of life and economic opportunities. Community impact: We believe that when we empower one person that person will create a ripple effect by sharing their skills and knowledge. That person will share with other women which can benefit the wider communities. Mwiza Khosa we are so grateful for being part of this initiative.

Our maize fields it's a sad story but if there is one thing l have learnt in this life, is to be grateful to God even hopeless 😩 and setbacks moments. Despite our investments going to waste. We are so grateful that as a foundation we tried to something that would have been fitted children we support. God knows better and will keep having faith and trusting a miracle of how we can invest in irrigation because climate change is real and it is here to stay. Eyes on the next farming season. #Hope #faith #Godsgraceissufficient #expectingamiracle #trusttheprocess
Our Corn 🌽 was coming up so great and we had hope that our foundation will have enough food to feed the children,while they learn at school. Now We have experiencing drought in Zambia 🇿🇲.And our 3 hectares of corn has started drying up 😥😢😭 In these moments it feels like giving up everything is a only solution . It breaks our hearts to lose everything we had invested in farming especially as we are small starter ups farmers with no much resources to even put irrigation system. Reading these words in psalms 34 :17-28 “I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." This verse reminds us that God is present with us in our struggles, offering strength and assistance. The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles. Right now all hope seems lost and We still don’t know how everything will fall into place. But we shall keep trusting the one who called us to do this work.For God is a father to the fatherless and we just tools he has been using. #trusttheprocess #trustinggodsplan #Godsgraceissufficient
ALL HAPPY FACES OF CHILDREN,DUE TO HAVING CLEAN WATER. In the community where we are building a school and a home for the vulnerable and orphaned children.We just managed to drill a well (borehole)so that these children can able to have access to clean water and won’t be able to miss out school. The water crisis is not a set of statistics. It’s a daily reality that shapes the lives of millions. And it’s not just about adequate access to water. It’s about access to clean water, which impacts health, education, commerce, and future opportunities. The World Bank reports that only two-thirds of Zambians have adequate access to clean water. And this figure drops significantly in rural areas, where the infrastructure to supply clean water is likely either inadequate or non-existent. In these rural areas, the daily routine for many people revolves around water collection. And because adults must work tirelessly to try to meet their family’s most basic needs, the chore of water collection often falls to the children. Some may start their day before sunrise to embark on an hours-long journey to the nearest water source. Often, this source is an untreated river or open well, neither of which reliably provides clean, safe water. The water they collect can often be filled with pollutants and bacteria, posing serious health risks. Now when they saw drilling company coming to drill the well .All faces were bright and we just saw happy faces of children. As a foundation we desire to see every child smile everyday. #CleanWater #educationmatters #healthylife #savelives
