its More Than a Scholarship. its A Commitment to Their Future.

At WISE Zambia, a scholarship is just the beginning. We make a long-term commitment to promising students in rural Zambia, beginning in secondary school and continuing through college, career preparation, and beyond. Along the way, we provide far more than financial assistance: mentorship, personal support, technology, new experiences, and opportunities to discover talents they never knew they had.

We don't simply invest in their education. We invest in who they can become.

Our Approach

We support the whole student—academically, personally, and practically—from secondary school toward independence.

Why It Matters

Our students are encouraged not only to pursue their own ambitions, but to give back and expand opportunities for others.
