ZAM 25 - MAINTENANCE OF SAN DANIELE COMBONI CENTER
Project Location
The project is carried out at the St. Daniel Comboni Social Development Centre (SDCSDC), located in a poor neighborhood, in an informal and overpopulated settlement on the outskirts of Lusaka (Zambia) called Makeni Villa. It is located south of the suburb of Kanyama, one of the poorest areas of the capital. The Comboni Missionary Sisters have been present in this area since 2016.
Project description
The Center, which hosts about 200 children every day for informal education, needs to do some maintenance work such as: painting the external and internal walls of the classrooms and replacing some doors and windows that have been ruined by time.
