Mission Statement

14+ Foundation is a USA-based charitable organization that was formed to develop and build schools and orphanages for African children in rural communities.

About This Cause

14+ Foundation, Inc. is a NYC-based 501(c)(3) non-profit established in 2012 by Joseph Mizzi and Nchimunya Wulf to develop, build and operate schools and orphanages in rural African communities. The Chipakata Children’s Academy in Zambia, Africa, provides a comprehensive primary school education (grades 1-6) for the children of the Chipakata Village community, who previously had to walk more than 7 km (4.3 miles) each way to the nearest school. The school’s curriculum incorporates arts-based education programs, which are central to our mission. The school will also serve orphans and children of need from the local community, who will be provided with necessary full-time housing and care. The project also involves providing the community with vital improvements, goods and services. To date we have completed numerous such initiatives including infrastructure improvements (roads, bridges and water wells), increased access to medical care and other services through projects like our community grinding mill (for maize) and a retail shop, which makes basic household goods available with all proceeds going to support direct operational costs and/or used toward other community initiatives. A portion of these proceeds will go toward our micro-financing partnership with Tiyeseko Women’s Club, a newly-formed community group comprised of more than 40 local women who seek to improve their lives and well-being through various income-producing activities under this program. 14+ Foundation is developing its second project, Mwabwindo School in Mwabwindo Village, Zambia, designed by Selldorf Architects which broke ground in 2016.
