The Leadership Farm is a leadership development primary school located in Lusaka, Zambia. GBCC is partnering with The Leadership Farm to host 5-10 newly graduated Zambian students in Green Bay, WI for 10 weeks. Volunteer host families in the Green Bay area are invited to provide a healthy, respectful, and purpose-aligned environment for Zambian student interns to live. The goal is not only offering them hospitality, but partnership in leadership development, cultural exchange, and biblical formation of each intern to prepare them for future leadership influence of Zambia.
· Student Ages: 18–20 y/o. Each student will have recently graduated primary school and are awaiting University classes to start this fall.
· Students would intern 20 + hours a week, so they will probably out of your home most week daytimes.
This is a pilot program for GBCC, so there is much we are learning and still shaping as it develops. Your participation and help would make this initial experience for Zambian students so awesome. Thank you for considering being a host family!

The Zambia Student Leadership Internship is a short-term, part-time internship program directed by Green Bay Community Church. This internship is designed to immerse Zambian students (ages 18–20) in real-world career environments within businesses and nonprofit organizations in the Green Bay area.. Host organizations play a vital role by providing hands-on exposure, mentorship, and leadership development opportunities that students can take back to Zambia to strengthen their communities.

Access International Church - zambia
Access International Church is a network of churches throughout South East Africa committed to sharing the gospel and church planting in every nation. If you are interested in supporting pastors from indigenous tribes to preach, pastor and lead in their local tribes and languages, consider sponsoring a week-long training. Or, is you have a Masters degree in biblical / pastoral studies, consider coming on a trip as a guest lecturer. Pastors gather quarterly for biblical training, pastoral development and fellowship with other indigenous pastors. We will continue our partnership with AIC to teach, support and encourage these pastors to carry out the work of their calling in local contexts.
