About Us

We empower marginalized communities by providing access to basic needs and protecting the most vulnerable, especially children.

Transforming Lives, One Community at a Time

The Bushbaby Foundation is a faith-based nonprofit organization dedicated to restoring dignity, hope, and opportunity to some of Zambia’s most vulnerable communities. Founded on compassion and Christian values, we exist to bridge the gap for children, families, and communities in need—ensuring that no one is left behind.

Our work reaches across education, health, human rights, child protection, water and sanitation, gender equality, and advocacy against child marriage. Each initiative is carefully designed to empower individuals and create long-lasting impact.

Our Mission

To uplift marginalized communities by providing access to education, healthcare, clean water, and protection services, while advocating for justice, gender equality, and the end of child marriage. We believe every child and every family deserves the opportunity to thrive.

Our Vision

A Zambia where all children are safe, all families have access to basic human rights, and all communities can build brighter, self-sustaining futures.

Our Core Focus Areas
Stories of Impact

At the University Teaching Hospital (UTH), children in the D-Block Ward faced unimaginable hardship, with poor facilities and limited care. The Bushbaby Foundation intervened by raising awareness, mobilizing resources, and bringing critical support to restore dignity and hope to these young patients. 

In the rural village of Kaindu, children attend a small, under-resourced school. Despite challenges, the school represents possibility and hope. Through our support, we are ensuring that these children receive not only an education but also the encouragement to dream beyond their circumstances.

These are just two stories—among many—that highlight the heart of our mission: transforming communities with love, resilience, and faith.

Our Activity

What We Do

Everybody can contribute to social change if they put their mind to it. BushBaby Foundation gives individuals in urban geographies an opportunity to contribute to development in rural Zambia through their knowledge, skills and time. Our aim is to catalyse these synergies, and create meaningful engagements for those who want to play a part in doing their bit for society.

We welcome dialogue and collaborations across organisations and individuals, to help us in our mission to bridge the gap between the haves and have nots.
