The project to be developed will take place at the Lusavi Children's House. The adolescents are facing extreme poverty and urgently require vocational training to enhance their financial prospects and personal development.
In addition to receiving technical skills in carpentry through the establishment of a workshop, they will undergo comprehensive training aimed at fostering personal growth.
This includes sessions on industrial safety to ensure their well-being in the workplace, guidance on maintaining good health for both academic and professional success, and hands-on instruction from a qualified mechanical engineer regarding the installation, operation, and maintenance of workshop machinery.
By equipping these youths with the necessary skills and knowledge, they will be empowered to produce doors, windows, and various wooden furniture items. This not only ensures the sustainability of the carpentry venture but also provides them with a means to earn a living.
The proceeds generated from their work will be reinvested into materials and labor, thereby perpetuating the project's economic viability and improving their living standards. Given the dire circumstances of extreme poverty, this initiative represents a crucial step towards establishing a sustainable solution.

This project needs to receive some pledges to go to the next level. Please check the "Financing" tab to see the list of current pledges. Once the amount pledged is equal to the project budget, the status of the project will be automatically changed to "Fully Pledged". Click here to pledge support for this project.
Note: as of July 1, 2015 there is a 5% additional support fee for cash contributions. This fee does not appear in the financials above because it does not apply if the funds are sent directly to the project account (without going through TRF, and therefore without Paul Harris credit). Clubs sending their cash contribution to TRF must be aware they will have to send an additional 5%.
