Chawama Divine Center (CDC) launched the Children With Disabilities Program on Monday, 28th April, 2025 aimed at restoring dignity, unlocking potential and fostering hope for children living with disabilities in Chawama Compound.

Speaking at the event, Semba Chimbalanga who is the Chairman for Semba Chimbalanga Foundation welcomed the initiative and thanked Madam Grace for the admirable and commendable job she has been doing at CDC.

Brenda Njemba, a parent to one of the children with a disability pointed out that Chawama Compound has no special school for such children and she humbly requested that this program should be supported fully. Some mothers to these children have been abandoned by their spouses and face stigma from family members and the community she added.

Sarah Banda, one of the children who stays at the center shared her experience living at CDC and requested for support through this journey which is a deep investment in humans.

As Nets Legends Basketball Team, it is an honor to be part of this initiative which is crucial in shaping a brighter future for these children.

The Team was represent by Vast M Matimba and Team Captain/Manager Magunhu Nhova.

Chawama Divine Care Orphanage is a home to 12 Girls and 8 boys between the ages of two and eighteen. Located at Plot #31/34/305, Chifundo Road, New Chawama, the Orphanage also provides Education Programs through a Community School, with lessons from Pre-school to Grade 7. The children are also provided with Psycho-social Counseling, Sports, Feeding Programs, Spiritual Guidance, Recreational and Art activities.

Just like any other child, they all have dreams of becoming Doctors, Teachers, Nurses, Preachers, and Soldiers. They dream of a place where they can be themselves, without being restricted by their surroundings, their living conditions, or the limitations of what is immediately around them.

As Nets Legends Basketball Team, visiting the orphanage was a life changing and humbling experience and it reminded us of the importance of social responsibility and the impact that small acts of kindness can have on the lives of others.

Thank you Chawama Devine Care Orphanage for accepting our gifts and for reminding us that “WE CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS US.’

CDC- Committed to uplifting the lives of every Vulnerable Child through promotion of their access to the necessary Basic needs and respect of their Rights.
