House Dedication ceremony

Recently, Habitat for Humanity Zambia held a House Dedication Ceremony at Tiyende Pamodzi affiliate in Lusaka, along Great North Road. A total of 39 houses were dedicated. Each of the 39 homeowners received a Bible to symbolize the Love and Teachings of Jesus Christ, a principle upon which Habitat is based. The house Dedication Ceremony also coincided with the closing ceremony for the Global Village team from Ireland. To officiate at this ceremony was  Executive Director for Bible Society of Zambia.

 

In a continued effort to sensitise as many people as are willing to listen, Habitat for Humanity Zambia undertakes special projects and builds. These aim at covering broad expanses of objectives such as cultural exchange, wide-scale participation and far-reaching publicity and clarification of the activities undertaken by the Ministry.

These special projects are held with no specific calendar in mind and can be tailored to best suit the readiness of all involved. The projects can best be described as working models of Habitat's work in the nation. They involve vast amounts of time resources as they are often in partnership with individuals and organisations from diverse backgrounds and cultures and it is essential that all factors are controlled to make their exposure to activities as comfortable and safe as possible.

Standard Chartered Bank Zambia Ltd has shown interest in working with Habitat for Humanity Zambia to build houses for Orphans and Vulnerable Children and female headed households. A special build will be hosted to celebrate the building of the houses. More details later
 

MTN Zambia has also shown interest in partnering with Habitat for Humanity Zambia to build houses for the needy families in Zambia. Details will be given later.
