The Tusekwile Imiti Ikula Foundation is a community-based nonprofit organization based in Sansamwenje Community in the Isoka District of Northern Zambia. TIIF is dedicated to providing access to quality education to the most vulnerable and marginalized children and youth in our community. Through our privately-operated school and community educational programs, we aim to empower children with the knowledge and skills they need to build better lives for themselves and their families.
Our nonprofit addresses the lack of access to education in our community, particularly for vulnerable and marginalized youth. The limited access to education in the rural Zambian context severely limits opportunities for children and young people and contributes to the following social issues: childhood marriages, substance abuse, prostitution and school dropouts.
Education is a powerful tool that can empower individuals and communities to overcome their challenges and build a better future. As such, our educational programs offer the following benefits to those who participate:
Increased access to education: The TIIF school serves over 150 marginalized children and youth who would otherwise not have access to education.
Improving quality of education: TIIF is an innovator and thought-leader in improving the quality of education, not only through our school but to other providers of education across our region. We partner with leading institutions in education and health to bring best practices, resources, and effective approaches to education to benefit children and families.
