Building Homes for Teachers, Growing Minds for Conservation
Support the future of conservation
This special charity project is raising funds to build three staff accommodation blocks at New Ngoma School, located in the remote village of New Ngoma adjacent to Kafue National Park, Zambia.
The school plays a vital role in educating the local community on conservation and the protection of elephants and other wildlife—connecting quality education with long-term environmental stewardship.
A school with heart, and urgent needs
New Ngoma School serves 160 students, aged 5–15, with only three teachers.
To meet demand and deliver quality education, four additional teachers are needed—but housing is the barrier.
The government is willing to provide more teachers, but until proper housing exists, they simply cannot be placed here.
The New Ngoma Plan
We aim to build three safe, permanent housing units to help attract and retain qualified teaching staff.
The cost will be funded through The David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation (DSWF) Charity number: 1106893.
The build itself will be under the control of the Zambian charity Game Rangers International (GRI) Registered Non-Government Organisation in Zambia Cert. No. RNGO 101/0185/2014-ISSUE-2. This project is fully prepared to begin once funding is secured for the first unit. The project will be overseen by Game Rangers International.
