Breakthrough Chiparamba’s vision and practice involve using football in innovative environments. Although the organisation addresses a wide range of social issues, its main programmes include environmental clean-up projects involving football participants and work with the Mayukwayukwa refugee camps to establish a football league. Breakthrough Chiparamba is also heavily involved in the coordination of the Zambian Street Football Network.

Breakthrough Chiparamba’s vision is to grow and become a pioneer in the use of football for development at the grassroots level. So far, it has demonstrated the effectiveness of incorporating social messages into a game loved by so many young Zambians.
