Since its inception in 2001, PRO-telligent has been dedicated to providing services promoting community development around the world. Our work supporting international communities has enabled us to make positive and sustainable changes to the world around us.
PRO-telligent supports The Josephine Fogg School in the Estates of Kafue, Zambia. Started as a nursery school, The Josephine Fogg School was established in 1986 using donations from the international community. With the continued support of the residents of Kafue, and the involvement of PRO-telligent and donors the school has grown to 400 pupils and provides services to students through grade 9.
Recently, the school has undergone renovations, including the addition of three large classrooms and the construction of a borehole for running water and enhanced sanitation. In addition, The US Embassy Ambassadors Self Help Fund donated $7,000 to build a sanitation block, which has proven to be beneficial to the health and wellbeing of the school’s many pupils. To further facilitate the growing educational needs of the local area, plans for expansion of the school include a science building and computer center. The school is now registered with the Zambia Ministry of Education. A staple of the local community, The Josephine Fogg School illustrates PRO-telligent’s commitment to education and sustainable development in Africa.

Site Surveying and Construction
This includes turnkey application of new facilities, surveying of site, engineered drawings and construction of same to client specifications.
Communication Systems HF, VHF, SATCOM
Our technical department has the capability to support all communication requirements, including physical installations of systems, ongoing maintenance, as well
as application of operating licenses.
Borehole Drilling and Fitting
Water is key to school sustainability, our capabilities include physical consumption evaluation/requirement, geophysical exploration, borehole drilling, dynamic table evaluation, and pump instillation (hand pump or electrical both solar and AC).
Water Storage and Purification
Once the water source has been approved based on sustainable yield and tested for purity (based on mineral content PPM), a suitable treatment plant will be designed. Our capabilities include the design and installation of ROWPU (Reverse Osmosis Water Purification Units) for high mineral content water, as well as general filtration units both with UV post-filtration sterilization units, ozonizer units, or, in extreme cases, chlorine dosing pumps. Water storage units are used for pre- and post-purification storage as well as waste/reject water storage (from ROWPU units) that is suitable for grey water applications.
Sewerage Treatment and Purification Units
Recovery and management of waste water system design and installation. Management of black water through septic tanks and leach fields or high production waste management through STP’s (sewage treatment plants). Treatment is followed by post-treatment purification (chlorine and flocculent treatment) and disposal through irrigation or subterranean leaching systems.
