Story
The Mlambe
Project - why are we helping?
We are
proud to have the Mlambe Project as our first President’s Charity.
Malawi is
one of the very poorest countries in the world with a basic literacy rate of
62%. The mission of the Mlambe Project is to provide sustainable livelihoods
and quality education to Malawian people using innovative, low cost and high
impact methods.
This is
achieved by building classrooms in remote villages in Malawi using earth bag
techniques, thus providing employment and education possibilities in a very
sustainable and environmentally positive way.
To raise
funds for this Project, Church Stretton Rotarians Don Lovejoy and Patrick Lewis
with others including Rotarians from Welshpool will be walking the full 84
miles of Hadrian’s Wall from July 18th to July 23rd. Please sponsor them.
