Description

The Young Lions are a group of young runners, between the ages of 8 and 22, in Ndola, Zambia.  These boys are coached and cared for by Orchard Ministries. Through running, the Young Lions have experienced incredible life-lesson teaching opportunities, galvanized a special brotherhood, and surpassed numerous personal limitations. Through this process, everyone at Orchard Ministries and the Young Lions community in Zambia have become stronger, more useful, more durable, and more joyful. 

All donations made to Orchard Ministries will go 100% toward assisting these young men with food, education, and shelter; and will provide for their entry into more competitive races in and around Zambia!

On January 2nd, 2021, join our Young Lions Team and dig deep! Push through the wall! Run fearlessly, finish well, and have an amazing run!
