The Stories of Transformation Series: Missing Generations

    Series: Stories of Transformation

    Today we publish the final story in our three-part Stories of Transformation Series, a set of stories that we hopes helps you connect more deeply to some of the children that Spark is serving in Ndola, Zambia. These stories show not only the hardships that the children at Hope Community School endure but also their seemingly limitless resilience and potential.

    T Stories-3-Jane and GirlsOur final story is that of Mildred Songa, Helen Mulenga and Kangua Mulenga, three young students at Hope Community School who are cared for by their great-great-grandmother because their family has seen the death of nearly two entire generations. Mildred, Helen and Kangua’s story is one of the many stories of both hardship and possibility at Hope Community School. You can read the family’s full story here.

    Many of the students like Mildred, Helen and Kangua are still waiting for sponsors, and if you are interested in sponsoring a child through Spark Ventures, please visit our Sponsorship page.
