About Bwanali Chipole Victory (BCV)
Education
Education is the cornerstone of what we do at BCV. Since 2011, we have placed emphasis on addressing this as a key tool to make a difference in the future of the children we serve. Our goal is to make a difference, one child at a time. By focusing on education we can make a sustainable difference.
FEEDING
Food is one of the core fundamental needs of all human beings. We place direct emphasis on addressing this most basic of needs for our children. One of the challenges we face is malnutrition. Many of the children in our community are suffering from the effects of malnutrition.
housing/dorms
We are currently in the process of constructing a facility that will house 112 girls & boys upon completion. This will be a way for us to keep some of our children we serve overnight as we currently do not have the resources.
Maize & Rice Mill
It has been our goal from our inception to reliably address the needs of the children we serve through providing food, shelter, education, clothing, medical care, etc. To do this, we believe that we have to evolve from being solely reliant on donations. Our maize and rice mills have been generating revenue for over five years.
Community
From providing relief from natural disasters with food and temporary housing to working with the local police and hospital to provide help for new mothers, we are committed to give help and hope to our community.
We Have the Power to Impact This Community, and We’re Doing Something About It
Years ago Jane Khembo began supporting and feeding some of her deceased cousins’ children. They had been left, orphaned and hungry due to the intense poverty in the region of Phalombe. Soon after she began feeding them, many others from 4 surrounding villages were brought to her attention that required the same necessities that are taken for granted in the developed world. She worked from October to December of 2011 with a local Bishop to feed children daily at the central location of the church. The vulnerable children have been receiving meals once or twice daily, depending on the finances being provided by Jane Khembo and donors. By the end of December, 130 children under the age of five were being fed each day. Out of this was born BCV to meet the needs of this region.
We have continually educated and fed children since 2011.

OUR CURRENT PROJECT
Justin Weimer Boys & Girls Dormitory Project
We are currently in the process of constructing a facility that will house 112 boys & girls upon completion. This will be a way for us to keep some of our children we serve overnight as we currently do not have the resources. We have already begun working with the local and national government and have begun the screening process so that we select those children who are most in need of housing. Through the use of birth certificate records and other documents and agencies we can better identify those children. We are fortunate to have the support and help of the social welfare offices as we work with them through this process.
Upon completion, the structure will be comprised of two parallel ranch style buildings that will house 56 girls per building. Each building will have dormitory style housing for the children. Four children per room. We will have full time resident matrons as well for each building address the needs of the children, security measures, and other aspects pertinent to the long term sustainability of the building.
