Wexford CBS - Zambia Immersion Project

Wexford CBS - Zambia Immersion Project Please feel free to email us on [email protected] Thanks. We are a group of students from Coláiste Éamonn Rís Secondary School, Wexford.

We will be fundraising throughout the year and we would really appreciate it if you could assist us with fundraising by donating raffle prizes or by any other form of donation. We are currently fundraising for a community in Kabwe, Zambia in Africa, where we are going to visit in June 2015. The funds we raise will be used to buy much needed equipment to improve people's lives and will help with th

e development of a drop in centre and school called Sables. Sables provide a home and education for many of the street children from the surrounding areas. In the past our school has taken part in this life-changing project, students and teachers were given the chance to travel to developing community in Kabwe, where we helped in a hospital, visited local schools, taught and interacted with the students. They also worked on many different projects while they were there. The project was a huge success and the community they visited benefited greatly from their contributions. We will be travelling with an Irish charity called 'Zamda Ireland'. Zamda is set up through St. Josephs CBS in Fairview, which provides developmental aid to Kabwe in Zambia. They are dedicated to providing direct and effective aid to a number of projects in and around the city of Kabwe in Zambia. Their main priority is supporting “Sables”, a centre for Kabwe’s street children.

Good luck to Andrew O’Brien and Rory Donohoe who have a novel idea of completing '24 Sports in 24 Hours' in aid of the Zambia Immersion project.

The boys are going to build schools in Zambia next June as part of a CBS team of student volunteers. They need help with their fundraising for program costs and materials.

They are doing '24 Sports in 24 Hours', and are asking the CBS School Community to support them at one of their activities on November 1st & 2nd.

So we're all home safe and sound after an incredible journey in more ways than one. We are so proud to have been able to help with the good work that goes on in Sables and Kangombe. The experiences we have had and the bonds we have made will stay with us for the rest of our lives. It was an unforgettable couple of weeks and the memories will stay with us forever.
We would like to thank every single person and business that made this journey possible. We couldn't have done it without you all. You have helped more than you know.
Until next time :-)

Please like the Zamda Ireland page to have a look at the work that goes on over there (and the play :-)). You'll see the current group of volunteers over there at the minute and what they are up to. It's very easy to get caught up in preparing yourself for this trip, particularly for parents, and lose sight of why we are going. It isn't about us at all. Have a look at the photos and you'll see why :-).
