Roll Back Malaria
​

Malaria is a major problem in many African nations and is the leading cause of death in children in Zambia.  Mosquito nets are distributed to all pregnant women and children under 5 in an effort to prevent the disease. In collaboration with The Ministry of Health we test and treat large numbers of adults, children and babies.

​Insect Screening of Mothers Shelter at St Luke's Hospital

Our volunteers and newly graduated Dental Therapists from Lusaka spent the day installing insect screening to the mothers shelter at St Luke's Hospital. The shelter houses pregnant women in their last few weeks of pregnancy as they await birth. Previous to the installation the openings in their accommodations allowed mosquitoes to enter freely increasing their exposure to malaria. 

Restoring Reading

A simple pair of reading glasses can make such a difference in someone’s life. Glasses are unavailable in rural parts of Zambia and we were touched by the stories on our last trip how people  are unable to help their child with school work or read their bible due to age related deterioration in vision. We are testing sight and giving out glasses to those in need. ​

​Sporting and Educational Equipment for Primary Schools 

We support primary schools selected by the host government by donating sporting and educational equipment. In July 2018 Kamweshya School in Zambia was the recipient of almost 100kg of sporting and educational supplies. Thanks to Georges River Football Club and Jannali Netball Club for donating the sporting equipment
