Life in Malawi is currently even tougher than usual, with rampant inflation, the impact of climate change on farming conditions among other things, and most people really struggling to achieve anything remotely like what you and I would call a reasonable standard of living. Yet, you are making a difference. The former ‘street children’ whose schooling you support continue to make better than average progress; the secondary schoolgirls who receive your menstrual health kits express their delight as they know the difference the kits will make to school attendance, and therefore achievement. The hostels you have built ensure a safe environment for girls to continue their education. The “safe house” refuge recently completed for the survivors of domestic abuse has been assured of a future by the Clooney Foundation undertaking the funding of its running costs.
More is needed of course, but what we are doing is making a real difference. Thank you for your support.
