J-Zone | Brooke and Anders Olson
Zambia, Africa
Brooke started with J-Zone October of 2019 as the Director of J-Zone Youth Camps. Due to Covid she returned to the states in 2020-2022 where she met Anders while working at a Christian summer camp in California. We were married in May of 2022 and returned to Zambia in November of the same year. Together in Livingstone, Zambia, we run two after-school programs and weekend day camps while construction begins on the 66-acre property for the future home of J-Zone Youth Camps. Our cost of living is $5,000 per month which includes operating current youth ministries.
J-Zone serves the next generation of leaders in Africa and therefore the world!
Phase one includes preparation of the ground ie: roads, fencing, clearing space, wells, and water tanks. As well as building our team house so that we can better host teams and visitors who want to partner with us on the field here in Zambia.
We have been blessed with over 27 hectares (over 66 acres!) of land and with that we are estimating that it will cost about $185,000 to complete phase one. Please pray about financially partnering with us in use in this land as a place to train, equip and send the next generation of leaders in Africa.
Help us start the groundwork for what the Lord wants to do with the youth of Zambia! Below are infrastructure needs and corresponding monetary values. (*Indicates which items have already been sponsored):
