Thanks for your support last month and with all the deliveries and shop we raised over £1000 and have been feeding very many hungry families. This from Vincent on 17th September:

'Daniel and Liset our coordinator in Siavonga send their love and thanks for food relief in the hunger areas this year. They did not have rain resulting in starvation there and your organization opportunity Zambia has reached there with meal meal’. Siavonga is 3 1/2 hours up the Zambezi river by boat. We are making a difference in so many lives - this as well as all the families at Kabanana School and in the Kapmapa rural community.’
