“TRUE GREATNESS IS NOT SELF-SERVING. IT MEANS IMPACTING OTHERS.”
- Lewis Howes
The Olive Tree Learning Center (OTLC), is a wonderful non-profit organisation located in Ngwenya, Livingstone, Zambia. OTLC aims to empower communities through education and we are so grateful to be a part of this project. 400+ vulnerable children and orphans are given hope for a brighter future and we are going to do everything we can to help make a difference.
In May 2022 the whole PTI community got together and made it possible to organise the first trip to Zambia with 12 suitcases packed with tennis and sports equipment, clothing, shoes, and much more. It was an incredible team effort to make this life-changing experience possible.

Support PTI Project Zambia 2025:
Every donation from this event goes directly towards supporting PTI’s Project Zambia in partnership with the Olive Tree Learning Centre (OLTC). This initiative empowers the community and significantly impacts those in need. By participating and sponsoring, you help us achieve essential milestones and improve lives. Check out our specific goals for 2025. Every contribution helps us move closer to a brighter future!
School Lunch Program
Goal: CHF 7’000
Since 2023, OTLC has been committed to providing hot, nutritious meals to students and staff five days a week. This initiative supports their well-being and boosts classroom focus. With your help, we can continue this crucial program indefinitely, just to let you know that no child has to learn on an empty stomach.
Additional Staff Salary
Goal: CHF 4’500
In order to keep qualified teachers and comply with Zambia’s minimum wage requirements, OTLC plans to raise teacher salaries. We also intend to hire a financial manager along with two additional teachers to decrease class sizes. Presently, classes average between 45 and 60 students. This reduction aims to enhance the quality of education.
Playground Foundation for Everybody
Goal: CHF 1’000
We are establishing the foundational structure for OTLC’s inaugural playground by building a robust and enduring concrete base. This base will serve as the bedrock for a secure and stable environment where children can participate in recreational activities.
Toilets and Washroom
Goal: CHF 1’200
At present, OTLC faces a significant challenge with inadequate restroom facilities, particularly for teenage girls who require private spaces during their menstrual cycles. Your support can empower us to install three additional toilets and a washroom, ensuring essential privacy and safety for nearly 50 young girls.
Current Staff Salary
Goal: CHF 11’500
Assist us in offering stability and support to our committed team, which consists of 2 head teachers, 8 teachers, 2 assistants, 2 cleaners, 1 night guard, 2 cooks, 4 cooking assistants, and 1 tailor. While these salaries are still below the minimum, they are crucial for OTLC to keep making a significant impact.
New Preschool Classroom & Library
Goal: CHF 3’000
OTLC requires an extra classroom to provide age-appropriate learning spaces for its 64 preschoolers. This initiative will also feature a new library to foster a love for reading, offering dedicated hours for book clubs and study sessions. The budget also accommodates furniture and blackboards.
Playground Equipment
Goal: CHF 1’000
Together, we can create a play area for the children of OTLC to enjoy, discover, and flourish. This playground will feature swings, a slide, climbing structures, monkey bars, seesaws, a merry-go-round, a sandbox, and a mini-sports section for older children to play basketball, football, and mini-tennis.
