About Jubary

Meet Jubary

Jubary is an 17 year old boy from the village of Chichiko which is in Chongwe Zambia. At home Jubary’s duties include many household chores such as sweeeping, washing, and fetching water. He also has responsibilities in caring for his younger siblings and “extended” family. Jubary really enjoys learning about Mathematics in school and in the limited free time he has, enjoys Playing Games.

Daily Life

Daily life for Jubary and his friends is very difficult. The majority of his friends from Chichiko, his home, are not able to afford to go to public school and survive on a single small meal per day. This meal is primarily made of nshima – a staple that is made of ground corn flour boiled in water.

Making An Impact

By being in school at African Vision of Hope Chongwe, Jubary is not only having his mind “fed”, but he is benefiting from a nutritious meal each day he is in school. The majority of these children live with a single parent or relative. Others have been forced to live with whomever will take them in, and being forced to the streets by the age of 6 is not uncommon.

Jubary and his friends not only have physical poverty but they a poverty that can’t be seen. They have lost hope and do not believe that their life matters or that they matter.

Jubary desires to know that someone cares for him, thinks he is of value, and needs someone to encourage him, that there is truly a Hope for a better tomorrow. Jubary’s story can begin with you.

His School

African Vision of Hope – Chongwe

The school in Chongwe is located in an extremely rural community, located nearly 5 miles off of a paved road, this school started under a single tree back in 2008 and has grown to a full campus. The campus is located in the heart of the “bush” and serves nearly 900 students from grade 1 through grade 12.
In Zambia the school year runs from January through December. The children will have short breaks during April, August, and December.The school day begins around 8:00 am, lunch runs in shifts starting around noon. As classes wrap up during the afternoon, some children will stay at the campus to study or help classmates with studies while others must hurry off to perform “piece-works” which we would call odd-jobs. These “piece-works” are a necessary part of many of the children’s daily survival and are how money is earned to pay for living expenses at home such as rent, food, and clothing.

Chongwe School

His Village

Chichiko

Chichiko is within walking distance to the school in Chongwe and is one of the rural communities in the bush area of Chongwe. There are no streets, just simple dirt and rock paths that weave through out the rolling hills. This area is very remote, a much different pace of life than what most Americans are use to.

Home

Most of the homes are rented properties. Each house is generally a single room measuring 10′ x 10′. These houses will be constructed of hand made blocks – older homes of mud walls, tin or thatched roofs, and crudely made doors. A home as described will rent for about 350 Kwatcha per month. The average income for a family in the bush would be close to 400 Kwatcha per month. Once the rents are paid, the family will struggle to survive on the remaining 100 Kwatcha (about $9.00) for the entire month. Without African Vision of Hope these children would have no hope of attending school.

Living & Economic Conditions
  • The houses are typicaly found clustered together, and the clusters are then spread great distances from each other.
  • Standard construction is considered very poor.
  • The tasks of cooking, laundering, bathing are all tasks completed outside.
  • Water must be carried in for all tasks and is a major chore each day.
  • Unemployment is rampant – most work is “piece” work or day laboring.
  • Even though there is a very high death rate for children under 5 in these conditions – children are abundant and a never ending product of these environments.
  • It is not uncommon for families to sell thier daughters into marriage by 14 in this area.

Sanitation & Water

There is no public sanitation, just simple crude pit latrines located on the property. As well water is a difficult resource to find. Many families receive their daily needs from the well located on the school campus in Chongwe. Buckets and jugs are carried for miles, filled by hand pumping the water, then once filled to capacity walked the great distance home. Some families will pull water from a community “borehole” or shared stream. .

Zambian Life

Struggling To Survive

Day to day survival for the vulnerable and orphaned children of Zambia is very difficult. A land locked country in southern Africa, Zambia suffers greatly due to the continuing pandemic of HIV/AIDS, starvation, and the inability to offer free education to its children.To quote Mary, one of the African Vision of Hope students,

Without education you have no voice, without education you have no future, without education you have no hope.

Empowerment through education is the key to these children being lifted out of these dire living conditions. You have the opportunity to shine the light of Jesus into the hearts of these desperate children. A blessed opportunity through your relationship and the writing of letters to speak hope into a world that has become hopeless to them.
