Iʼve raised £1,329 to build a maize mill in Chilumba, Malawi
- Chifyo Malawi
- Funded on Monday, 31st August 2020
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
Malawi's main food source is maize, but many people struggle to afford it! The Maize mill will help put food in the homes of the elderly and those struggling most! With more food on their tables and money in their pockets, the more productive they can be!
At the moment people Living in Chifyo village, Chilumba are having to walk over 6km to process their maize in order to eat it. This means many people, especially the elderly and disabled, are struggling to get enough food!
The money will go towards building a new maize mill in the village so that everyone can have easy access to food! The mill will be completely free for the elderly and disabled to use, and a small fee for others. Some of these fees will be used to keep the mill running, and others will be put back into the community to help in developing other things the community wants, such as education!
The hope is to get a self running maize mill, that will not leave the community dependent on handouts. But one that will motivate people to contribute to a better community for them and their family! All in all, helping the Chifyo community, help themselves!
Any donations, in any form would be really appreciated. Thank you so much!
The hope is to start the project this September( or whenever we have enough funds). So if anyone would be interested in coming to malawi to help build it, or contribute supplies, you are most welcome! :)
