Just after Christmas COVID infection numbers spiked dramatically in Malawi. In early January the government began imposing stricter regulations on people meeting and shut down schools. This forced us to stop our normal feeding programs during the week. But our Director, Stanley, insisted that children were hungry and we needed to continue providing food to them and their families. So over the past several weeks we’ve been having children come in smaller group to receive maize flour and beans. We’re serving hundreds of children in this way every week. But we are actually distributing a lot more food than we normally do in our feeding programs (not a bad thing). We need to be able to offer this to children and families until at least April. So we’ve put out a special request for fundraising to help us keep getting food to children over the next 7 weeks. We’ve already had some pledges and hope to continue hearing from donors over the next two weeks. The goal is $4000, and we are already moving towards that. If we raise more than that, than just means we can get food to more people. Thanks for considering this.
