Family Project Zambia 2026
* Maps may indicate region where project will take place, not a specific site location.
Overview
Maranatha offers at least two family projects each year that provide service opportunities for every member of your family, both young and old. In 2026, spend part of your summer break in Zambia!
Maranatha has selected the Mwami Hospital Campus for a second Summer Family Project, July 16-26. Zambia has long been a beautiful place for tourists, with natural sights and wonders pervading the country. However, in recent years, the focus of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Zambia has been its explosive membership growth. From 2011 to 2024, membership more than doubled. As the church grows, there is a need for churches and schools.
For this upcoming project, volunteers will build a multi-classroom building for the secondary school located around the Mwami Hospital Campus, 45 minutes from the city of Chipata.

Day Camp For Our Volunteers Ages 12 and Younger
Maranatha’s Family Projects are designed to be family-friendly and accommodate volunteers of any age. One unique feature of a Family Project is a “Day Camp” for children ages 12 and under. Children under five must have a parent with them at all times. Parents with kids ages 5-12 have three options and can vary their decision day by day.
- Have your child join the Day Camp and stay to help with the activities of the day.
- Drop your child off at the Day Camp for the day while you join other areas of the project.
- Keep your child with you on your work crew throughout the day.
