Dear Supporter,
We trust this email finds you very well.
As you know it is our mission to educate exceptionally bright children and to give them more than just academics; also practical life skills and a deep compassion for others. Our results are often more visible once our children have left our Villages and gone on to university or careers. Therefore, it was an honour to meet with four of our Alumni last month in Zambia, to find out about their careers and how the Pestalozzi ethos has shaped their lives so far. The first in this series of interviews with our Alumni is with Fridah, who is an auditor with a chartered accountancy firm in Lusaka. It is a wonderful interview so please give it a listen below! We also met with our new Chairman of the Zambian Board, Brian Sitamulaho, who very generously gave us an incredible interview about why he decided to join our board. This interview will be coming soon on our YouTube channel so please subscribe to be notified. If you would like to stay up to date with the day-to-day life in our Villages, please follow us on socials, which can be found right here: | |

We look forward to seeing you there! | |
