The Zambezi Sunrise Trust Update
Thursday, 18 June 2026

We are delighted to share the news that long term charitable partner of the Foundation, the Zambezi Sunrise Trust, is celebrating its 10th anniversary this month. Founding trustee, John Gillette (P, 1980-85) OD, has shared this video (https://youtu.be/cdY-Q88D65s) to celebrate 10 years successful and sustainable development. The Trust's primary goal is supporting the Linda Community School in Livingston, Zambia, which now has over 900 pupils. Their most recent project, a solar powered computer building, opened earlier this year giving pupils access to the infinite learning resources of the internet. Over the past decade pupils from across the Foundation have supported the trust throughout with not only fundraising activities but also letter exchanges, live video events and uniform donations. Most recently money from the Chorister School Colour Run and activities in Lodge House have helped raise nearly £1,000 to support the Trust. Other schools supported by the Trust have also benefited from uniform donations, with Pimlico and MacLeod games tops being donated to Njokomalomo Basic School, a very remote rural school in Barotseland (Western Province). We look forward to continuing to support the Zambezi Sunrise Trust as it embarks on its next 10 years.
