Hope House Orphanage is registered in Zambia to care for homeless orphans.

Reverend Charles and Margaret Mumba founded the orphanage and are currently providing food, schooling, and shelter for over 200 children in Zambia, Africa.

Hope House Orphanage has purchased ten acres of land from the Ndola, Zambia government. We are presently building a wall-fence around the property for security reasons. Once the wall-fence is completed we wish to begin construction of dormitories, school and clinic. The children at the orphanage are presently residing in a small house in the city of Ndola which is very inadequate for their needs. We have no room for any additional children and there are so many precious children waiting to be admitted. The Hope Fellowship school presently is educating 250 children from the Twapia community. The children are fed a hot meal four times a week at the school. The building that houses the school at the present time is rented from the city. Pictured at right is the beginning of construction of the Phillip Hust Memorial Building.

The country of Zambia lies in the tropical belt of South Central Africa. It covers 750,000 square kilometers -- big enough to swallow up France, Austria, Switzerland, and Hungary combined. Zambia is one of the poorest countries in Africa. About 80% of the Zambian people live on less than one dollar per day (far below the poverty level). At least one out of every five Zambians is infected with HIV/AIDS. Recent statistics state that 15.1% of all Zambian children aged 14 and below are orphaned. At this writing, Zambia has approximately 1,500,000 orphans under the age of 18 years. The country has over 100,000 street children. HIV/AIDS has hit almost every family in Zambia -- one is either infected or affected.

How You Can Help

It costs $50 per month to care for each child at the orphanage. The greatest expense is food. Prayerfully consider becoming a partner of Hope House Orphanage by making a one-time gift or a monthly commitment. Donations may be sent to:
