The name Chiwileda sounds like it could be from Zambia, but it is actually an acroynm for Children With Learning Disabilties. The parish provides moral and fiscal support for the school. There are about twenty children and they have a good ratio of teachers to students. The Bambina Sisters, an international Franciscan community, run the school and it is obvious how committed they are to the children. The learning disability child is marginalized in Zambia, and the school provides them a wonderful environment for growth, community and self-esteem.
