WHAT YOUR DONATIONS WILL PROVIDE:
The purpose of this effort is multi-faceted: it is aimed at rallying support
for the local conservation effort which is underway; providing a social and
recreational outlet for the communities; and creating an opportunity for
education and community development workshops and projects.
We would like to invite all athletes to take part in our Brother/Sister
sports team program. By "adopting" a Zambian sports team, athletes have a unique
opportunity to develop intercultural relationships with their brother/sister
team in Africa. The benefits of this include: Cultural Exchange; Educational
Opportunities; Photo Exchange; and regular newsletters with league match results
and updates. In addition, by sponsoring a team, you are providing the
opportunity to lift the spirits and improve the lives of your Zambian friends.
