Who we are.

Partners for Life Advancement and Education Promotion (PLAEP)

Is a faith based non-profit organization located in Kitwe, Zambia. The organization started in 2005 to partner with others in addressing the devastating effects of HIV in Kitwe communities and beyond. PLAEP core activities include HIV/Aids prevention services; economic strengthening initiatives for low income communities and individuals, particularly women and girls; livelihood and education support for orphans and vulnerable children (OVCs).

Children left in destitution because of loss of parents, ill health, stigma and discrimination, and alcohol and drug abuse are some of the effects of HIV. The organization also looked into addressing the pre-disposing factors of HIV in the local communities that include the low uptake of biomedical services, poverty, gender-based violence, and alcohol and drug abuse. In this regard, PLAEP interventions are always integrated, to provide a multi-pronged approach to multi-faceted community challenges. We reach out to improve the lives of vulnerable and deprived individuals in our communities by helping to build incomes, provide education and contribute to reducing the cycle of poverty in families. We invest in undeserved communities through economic empowerment initiatives, education support for low income individuals and health initiatives.
