Scholars of Hope Foundation was founded in 2017 by university students at Copperbelt University in Kitwe, Zambia. It is a vibrant, youth-led, non-profit and non-governmental organization dedicated to advancing the social and economic well-being of young people across Zambia.
Our work centers on four key pillars: education, environmental sustainability, youth empowerment, and health promotion. We envision a Zambia where every young person is equipped to thrive, lead, and play a meaningful role in the development of their community.
Our mission is to empower Zambian youth by providing educational support, fostering leadership, and promoting health and well-being. Through our initiatives, we aim to equip the next generation with the knowledge, skills, and confidence they need to build a brighter, more sustainable future for themselves and their communities.
Our primary goal is to deliver timely support and meaningful assistance to marginalized individuals—especially children—within underserved communities, schools, and orphanages.
Scholars of Hope Foundation is unwavering in its commitment to nurturing and empowering the youth in Zambia. Our efforts, spanning child sponsorship, mentorship, youth well-being and health, and our various impactful projects, are driven by our core values and guided by a strong vision. Together, we can shape a better tomorrow and continue making a positive difference in the lives of Zambia’s youth and marginalized communities.
Over the years, Scholars of Hope Foundation has partnered with various community and rural schools to empower young learners through mentorship, educational support, and resource provision. Through these efforts, we have mentored over 2,000 pupils, paid tuition fees for 200 children from vulnerable backgrounds, and provided essential learning materials to more than 300 pupils—ensuring that every child has a fair chance at a brighter future
In partnership with All for One Initiative Zambia, Scholars of Hope Foundation implemented climate change awareness programs across 20 schools and communities in Mansa in 2024. Beyond education, the initiative promoted sustainability by planting 600 trees, fostering long-term environmental impact.
We have conducted educational initiatives to raise awareness and provide information on menstrual hygiene, ensuring young girls have access to essential knowledge and resources.
