Impact Story: Charity is Going to University AND Becoming Our First Alumna Intern

Meet Charity, a remarkable young woman whose journey with us started at Believe Girls Club in Livingstone, Zambia. Her story is one of inspiration and achievement.

 

Charity joined the club at a young age, and her growth in confidence and dedication has led to a significant milestone — she's now pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Public Administration at a university in Lusaka, Zambia’s capital! Equally exciting is that Charity has become our first alumna intern, joining our GSGC admin team during her university studies. Under the guidance of veteran Mentor Kalinda Zimba, who focuses on monitoring and evaluating our clubs and mentorship programs, Charity will assist with processing crucial M&E data.


Charity shared, "I am thrilled to embark on this internship at GSGC. It's an incredible opportunity for me to learn new skills and gain experience in tasks that will shape my future career — a leader dedicated to serving communities for positive change."


We're proud to support Charity's aspirations and delighted to have her on the team.
