Facilities and Support Staff

Service Behind Every Success

Every organisation depends on dedicated people who work behind the scenes to create a safe, clean and welcoming environment. Today, we celebrate Mr Anthony Chandinda, a valued member of WISE Zambia’s Facilities and Support Staff.

Anthony is a resident of Kaoma District in Western Province. He completed Grades 1 to 9 at Mahilo Primary School and Grades 10 to 12 at Kaoma High School. He later undertook vocational training at Mongu Trades and obtained a certificate.

He joined WISE Zambia on 16 October 2025 as a member of the Facilities and Support Staff.

In his role, Anthony helps safeguard WISE Zambia’s premises and maintains a clean, orderly and welcoming environment for beneficiaries, staff members, partners and visitors.

Although much of his work takes place behind the scenes, it contributes directly to the successful delivery of WISE Zambia’s programmes. A safe and well-maintained environment enables learners, staff and community members to participate in activities with confidence and dignity.

What gives him satisfaction?

Anthony is encouraged when beneficiaries embrace the guidance and opportunities available to them, overcome challenges and remain focused on achieving their educational goals.

He believes that when young people receive education and appropriate support, their success extends beyond the individual. It can positively influence their families, communities and Zambia as a whole.

The change he has witnessed

Since joining WISE Zambia, Anthony has witnessed continued institutional growth, including the development of infrastructure and an increase in the number of learners receiving support.

These changes have strengthened his appreciation of the role every staff member plays in advancing WISE Zambia’s mission.

His message to beneficiaries

“Take full advantage of the educational opportunities available to you. Keep your goals alive in your heart and remain focused.”

His message to partners and supporters

“Your support goes far beyond what you may imagine. When vulnerable children and students are empowered, the benefits reach their families, communities and the nation.”

Anthony sincerely appreciates WISE Zambia’s partners and supporters for helping transform lives in meaningful and lasting ways.
“May the good Lord continue to keep you in good health as you support those who need these opportunities.”
