Students volunteer for charity work in Zambia
The students of Christians Brothers College (CBC) in Cork will travel to Zambia next June where they will spend up to three weeks working with Christian Brothers’ humanitarian projects in the Mufulira region.
Among the projects they will engage with are the Edmund Rice Village, an ambitious building project near Murundu, which consists of 45 two-roomed houses for the poor elderly of the area, the Cicetokelo AIDS Hospice, the Chibolya Compound Primary School, which provides basic education to 150 township children, and the Mufulira Orphanage, where up to 60 children are being cared for following the deaths of their parents from AIDS.
