Our program empowers orphans and vulnerable Zambian youth to overcome life’s toughest challenges

Obstacomer Scholarship and Mentorship Program for Zambian Orphans

CPI’s ObstaComer Scholarship & Mentorship Program supports orphans and vulnerable youth in Zambia, helping them overcome life’s toughest obstacles. With over one million orphans and nearly 64 percent of the population living on less than $1 per day, these children face extraordinary challenges.

“ObstaComer” — a term coined by CPI volunteer Elizabeth Mulenga — celebrates young people who rise above adversity. Between 2021 and 2025, CPI provided full scholarships at New Beginnings Children’s Village in Kafue, Zambian, enabling students to complete their education and open doors to higher learning and meaningful careers.​ We are deeply grateful to our donors — your support gives these students education, confidence, and brighter futures.

Graduate stories and biographies coming soon!
