Malawi Facts:
Most Malawians rely on subsistence farming, but the food supply is precarious and the country is prone to natural disasters of both extremes - from drought to heavy rainfalls - putting it in constant need of thousands of tonnes of food aid every year.
Our vision is of a Malawi where orphans are given the opportunity to continue their secondary school education, to develop academically and make informed choices.
To achieve that vision, we aim to:
- Fundraise and raise awareness of the position Malawi has with its orphans.
- Generate fresh approaches to educating orphans in Malawi.
- Encourage any volunteers in the UK, Europe & America who wish to give up some of their skills and time to teach in Malawian schools for the benefit of the orphans.
