About EMI

Empowerment Ministries International logo – symbol of faith, hope, and community transformation

Founded in 2002 by Dr. Sam and Maud Moonzwe, Empowerment Ministries International (EMI) serves communities mostly across Southern Africa, especially in Zambia and Malawi. Through City and Village outreach, thousands have come to faith. EMI also drills boreholes for clean water and supports community empowerment, education, and family restoration.

EMI GIRLS DORM PROJECT

Urgent Need: Expanding Hope for 400 Young Girls

The Mukalaikwa Girls' Dorm Project

The Mukalaikwa Girls’ Dorm Project was created to provide safe housing for girls who faced abuse or were forced to drop out of school due to lack of shelter near their classrooms. The first dorm—built for 60 students—now shelters over 120 girls, many sleeping on floors or in shared spaces.

With the school serving nearly 400 girls, we urgently need to build two additional dorms to ensure safety, dignity, and continued education for every student.

The lack of a dormitory has deeply impacted our girls — each month we report about three pregnancies, as many are forced to rent unsafe huts near the school.
