A Book & A Buck
Opening the windows of the world to orphans and poor children
Eight years ago ACE established Faith Works Schools for 2,100 orphans and vulnerable children who could not afford the $200 to attend a public school in Lusaka, Zambia. This year, with a generous donation, we are building a middle school in Kanyama, the largest compound of Lusaka.
Each
year our pupils out perform public school students on the mandatory test
at the end of elementary school. This test determines whether
they are allowed to continue. But, by global standards, they are still
far behind, and one reason is that although our students are learning
to read, they have nothing to read!
Our new school will have the only free library open to the entire community. Will you help us fill the library?
We have a container leaving the US the first week in November. If you can help, please send new, or gently used books appropriate for grades 1 – 12 in a Christian school. To offset the shipping costs, please enclose $1- $5 per book inside the book cover. The books need to arrive by October 27th to make the first shipping date. View our book list here.

For a tax receipt please send a check, instead of cash, inside the books.
