Last week our LearnServe Zambia 2025–2026 Fellows had the rare privilege of being inspired by two incredible guest mentors!

🎙️ Veteran broadcaster Samuel Machishi shared his powerful journey, from picking food in public dustbins to hosting presidential functions. A true testament that determination can rewrite any story.

🌟 We were also joined by Brian Phiri, who opened up about his rise from a humble home in Mtendere Compound to becoming a child star on national TV, featuring in Kabanana and navigating the challenges of fame at a young age.

The session was nothing short of transformational. The Fellows walked away motivated, encouraged, and believing more than ever that greatness can grow from anywhere.
