In June 2026, our safari group traveled across Zimbabwe. While the landscapes of Victoria Falls were breathtaking, it was the warmth and bright intellect of the children at Chamabondo Primary School that captured our hearts.

In the local Nambya language, Chamabondo means "a pool of eels"—a metaphor for a deep, abundant pool of knowledge. Today, Chamabondo serves over 1,500 students. Yet, despite their brilliant young minds, these children face a staggering digital divide. In our modern, interconnected world, computer literacy is essential, but these classrooms completely lack modern technology.

We couldn't just journey home and forget them. As a community of traveling companions, we legally incorporated Victoria Falls Education Foundation Inc. (VFEF) to launch The Chamabondo Odyssey—a grassroots initiative dedicated to feeding this pool of knowledge.
