Zambia
Landlocked by eight countries, Zambia is rich in water and natural resources and sits on the border between Central and Southern Africa. Despite it's potential, 60.5% of Zambia's 15.72 million population lives below the World Bank's poverty level (2014 est.). Statistically, Zambia ranks as one of the poorest countries in the world. We are working to see that change.

Relationship
We believe that God's desire for relationship with each of us is the model for how we do life. At the core of all of our ministries, is a passion to build authentic Christ-centered relationships within the communities and individuals we interact with.

Open Door
In 2008, God opened a door and built a relationship between Eleeo Project and Chieftainess Mwenda. She is the traditional leader of the Tonga peoples of Chikankata and her vision to see the development of her peoples be founded upon the principles of God's Kingdom has been a vision we have fully embraced.
