MALAWI – Kawere pre-school construction

The small and rural community of Kawere lies in the Ntcheu District of Malawi, some 130km north-west of the Malawi capital, Blantyre. The Ntcheu District has the highest rate of educational deprivation in Malawi, at some 40.1%, so our Project here will be of vital importance.

Our funding will cover the construction of a classroom, toilet and kitchen for the establishment of a pre-school facility which will transform the learning environment for local children between 2 and 5 years of age. The pre-school will provide stimulation, numeracy and literacy skills and emotional care for the children before they enter primary school. Our funding will provide support for the Construction Committee to purchase non-local materials, such as cement, doors, roofing timber and paint as well as funding the construction of the school building.

The Project will be managed by community leaders and members of Kawere, together with our NGO and in-country partners, and once completed will be used by some 100 children from Kawere and will improve and change their lives.

Funds for this Project will not be transferred to Malawi until mid-November, so if you wish to donate specifically for this Project you can do so before 10 November 2021.
