Aid International sends a Build Team out to Zambia every year to work on projects helping orphans and street children.
In the past we have worked alongside Africa Enterprise Trust on jobs such as renovating buildings for use as orphanages, and constructing a boundary wall to protect the charity's land and buildings from thieves.
This year we are branching out into our own projects in conjunction with Fountain of Life Church, Lusaka, with the actual work itself being decided nearer to the departure date to ensure the most urgent and useful tasks are accomplished.
During the two weeks the team will work Monday to Friday, around eight hours a day, with free time in the evenings and on weekends which can be used to explore the area or relax in the lodge.
There will also be an opportunity to attend Fountain of Life Church on both Sundays if you would like to.
This is a fantastic opportunity not only to take part in vital, life-changing work, but to experience a new culture up close and to get involved in the lives of people we guarantee you'll never forget.
