Banja Restoration Mission (BAREMI) - In Memory of Randal Espey

BAREMI, Inc. is a non-profit organization dedicated to assisting orphans and vulnerable children in Zambia and beyond. Our goal is to restore their lives by providing education, food, and shelter.

BAREMI Inc., derives its name from the Banja Restoration Mission. The local dialect language of Lusaka, Zambia (Nyanja), "banja" means "family." The concept of family holds great significance in our mission, as we aim to support orphans and create a familial bond with them.

In Zambia, there are currently 1.2 million orphans who lack the necessary support and family structure to thrive. Many of them are forced to live on the streets and seek shelter under bridges to escape the cold nights. They rely on discarded food from trash bins for sustenance, and some are even forced into child labor.

To address this dire situation, BAREMI focuses on restoring hope to these children through education and food. We firmly believe these provisions are key to breaking the cycle of lifelong poverty.

Our current priority is to raise $280,000 to acquire 15 acres of land in Zambia and for the construction of a school. This school will serve as an ongoing support for orphans even after its completion.
