School Fundraising Kit
Kids helping kids.
Young people have the power to change the world. Through schools, clubs, and student-led fundraising, you can help build safe homes, education, and opportunity for children in Zambia.
Why it matters
Why student fundraising matters
Mutende Children's Home is building a self-sustaining home and farm in Zambia for vulnerable children. But this mission is bigger than one organization — it's a global movement built on community, compassion, and shared responsibility.
When students come together to raise funds, they aren't just donating money — they're helping build homes, support education, and create long-term opportunity for children who need it most.
This is real-world leadership in action.
