Primary School Scholars (3 Students)
Protecting Student Privacy
The safety, dignity, and privacy of our youngest students are a top priority.
Our three primary school scholars are all orphans, and out of respect for their circumstances, we do not publicly share their real names, personal histories, or identifying details. In the absence of parental consent, we believe it is both ethical and responsible to limit the information shared online.
These students attend Kacema Musuma Primary Boarding School, a primary boarding school in Kawambwa, Luapula Province that specializes in supporting orphans and vulnerable children through education, care, and stability. Beyond Borders has fully funded their primary school educations and they will be prioritized if they choose to apply for secondary school scholarships in the future.
For storytelling and reporting purposes only, we use pseudonyms when referencing our primary school students:
Chanda
Mulenga
Bwalya
These names allow us to share impact while ensuring each child’s privacy, safety, and future autonomy are fully respected.

Wellington Kasaila
2 year computer science program degree + new laptop = $460 total
Wellington has long been a trusted partner and friend of our founding team — a dedicated community volunteer who has consistently gone above and beyond to serve others. In his village, he mentors youth through sports, leads HIV awareness programs, and supports positive youth development. Whether on the soccer field or in local churches, Wellington is always working to create safe, empowering spaces for young people.
A father of three and a subsistence farmer, Wellington has a dream: to become a nurse and serve as a healthcare professional in his own community. Unlike many who see education as a way out of rural life, Wellington wants to stay in order to to bring his knowledge back to his village and be a force for change from within.
Recently, Wellington was accepted into a two-year computer science certificate program, a major stepping stone toward nursing school. Beyond Borders Education Fund is proud to support his journey by sponsoring his tuition and providing him with a personal laptop. In a program of over 70 students and only five shared computers, having his own laptop is truly transformative.
With this opportunity, Wellington is building a path from limited resources to higher education, from village role model to qualified health professional. His story is one of resilience, hope, and the power of investing in people who give back.

Our Computer Lab
In 2025, we opened the Beyond Borders Computer Lab—our first major investment in creating long-term learning opportunities for youth in Zambia. What began as an idea quickly became a fully functional space equipped with six desktop computers and two laptops, all dedicated to helping students build digital literacy, complete schoolwork, and explore new academic and career pathways.
The computer lab serves as a safe, reliable environment where students can learn essential skills such as typing, research, coding, and online navigation. For many of our learners, this is their first access to a computer—opening doors to opportunities that were previously out of reach.
