"The Forgotten Elderly: A Call to Action for Malawi’s Vulnerable Seniors"*<br /><br />In the quiet villages and bustling towns of Malawi, a silent crisis unfolds. Among the elderly population between 65 and 90 years old, many live in abject poverty, lacking basic necessities like beds and mattresses. These seniors, who once built the nation, now struggle to find dignity in their twilight years.<br /><br />Meet 75-year-old Mary Chisomo, who sleeps on a torn mat on the floor. "I can’t afford a bed," she says, her voice barely above a whisper. Like Mary, thousands of elderly Malawians face similar hardships, their struggles often overlooked.<br /><br />*The Reality:*<br /><br />- Many elderly live below the poverty line<br />- Lack of beds and mattresses exacerbates health issues<br />- Limited access to healthcare and social support<br /><br />*The Need:*<br /><br />- Beds and mattresses to improve living conditions<br />- Healthcare support and check-ups<br />- Social inclusion and community support<br /><br />*How You Can Help:*<br /><br />- Donate beds, mattresses, and blankets<br />- Support local organizations providing elderly care<br />- Volunteer your time or skills<br /><br />Let’s give Malawi’s elderly the dignity they deserve.

A Pencil That Can Change a Life<br />Every morning, Raju walks to school with hope in his eyes—but his school bag is empty. He borrows a pencil from his friend, writes carefully, and erases slowly so it lasts longer. When the pencil breaks, his learning stops.<br />Raju is not alone.<br />Many underprivileged children come to school without notebooks, pens, or basic stationery. Their dreams are strong, but their resources are weak. A simple stationery kit—a notebook, a pen, a pencil, and colors—can mean the difference between sitting silently in class and raising a hand with confidence.<br />At Gram Sewa Sangh, Nagpur, we believe that no child should be held back because of poverty. With your support, we want to place a complete stationery kit into the hands of children like Raju—so they can write their dreams, draw their future, and learn with dignity.<br />One kit. One child. One step toward a brighter tomorrow.<br />Join us in turning empty bags into bags full of hope.

"FLOODS HIT SOUTHERN MALAWI: 5000 PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES URGENTLY NEED SUPPORT. In early March, dark clouds gathered over the Shire Valley in Malawi’s Southern Region. Within hours the rivers swelled, breaking their banks and flooding villages from Chikwawa to Nsanje. Water surged through fields, homes, and roads, leaving a trail of destruction.<br /><br />Among the hardest hit were the 5,000 people living with disabilities — many confined to wheelchairs, crutches, or prosthetic limbs. The rising waters swallowed their mobility aids, and the chaos made evacuation nearly impossible. Families huddled in makeshift shelters, shivering under plastic sheets, their voices muffled by fear and fatigue.<br /><br />Local NGOs scrambled, but supplies ran out fast. One urgent need stood out: *5,000 blankets (wheelchairs)* — the difference between mobility and being stranded.<br /><br />That evening, under a flickering lantern, community leader Grace M. wrote a plea: _“Our rivers have risen, but our resolve hasn’t fallen. We need your hands to lift us again. Partner with us, donate wheelchairs, and help rebuild hope.”_<br /><br />The message traveled beyond borders, lighting a spark of compassion in donors worldwide.<br /><br />*Why it matters:*<br />- *5,000 people with disabilities* impacted<br />- *Floods devastated* homes and infrastructure<br />- *Immediate need:* 5,000 blankeys to restore mobility<br /><br />Heavy rains and floods in Nsanje, southern Malawi, have left 5000 people with disabilities struggling to survive. With homes destroyed and aid scarce, they urgently need blankets, food, and medicine.<br /><br />"We need blankets and support to get through this," says a displaced resident.<br /><br />Donors are urged to support relief efforts. Let's help those affected rebuild their lives!

"Learning Without Limits in Southern Malawi"*<br /><br />In the vibrant villages of Chikwawa and Nsanje, Southern Malawi, children with disabilities were often left behind in education. But one initiative brought hope: "Inclusion in Learning".<br /><br />At Mponda Primary and Bangula Secondary Schools, 7000 children with disabilities got a life-changing gift. Volunteers handed out colorful bags packed with notebooks, pens, and braille kits. "Today, I can write like everyone else!" beamed 12-year-old Thandiwe, who’s visually impaired.<br /><br />Teacher Agnes Phiri noticed the spark: "These supplies mean they can join class without fear. It’s dignity in learning."<br /><br />The support didn’t stop there. Specially designed desks and ramps made schools accessible. "Now my wheelchair fits everywhere," said 15-year-old Kondwani, grinning.<br /><br />The impact was clear: attendance soared, and dreams grew bigger. "I want to be a teacher!" said Thandiwe.<br /><br />*How you can help:* Support more children like Thandiwe and Kondwani. Donate bags, stationery, or funds to make schools inclusive.<br /><br />#InclusionMatters # Education For all#<br /><br />"7000 children with disabilities in Southern Malawi got bags & stationery!

We have a classroom full of eager minds, curious hands raised, eyes lit up with possibility.Now imagine telling those same students, “Sorry, we can’t access the internet today.”That’s the reality at Nandom L/A Primary and JHS.Over 100 students. One shared dream: to learn, to grow, to be part of a world that’s moving fast.But no computer lab.No way to learn digital skills. No safe space to explore coding or research. No access to the basic tools many others take for granted.We’re ready to change that.Together with our community, we’re building a computer lab right there in the school. Desks, laptops, internet access, and the support these students need to thrive in a digital world.Because every child deserves more than chalkboards and broken wires. They deserve opportunity.This isn’t just about tech. It’s about giving students a real shot at the future they dream of.If you’ve ever believed in the power of education to break cycles, this is your moment.We’ve got the plans. We’ve got the local support. Now we need the partners who’ll help us bring it to life.Want to be part of something real?Let’s build the lab. Let’s build the future.One student. One big possibility at a time.

SDK Deru (a Catholic private primary school) is one of 114 partner schools of Taman Bacaan Pelangi (TBP) in Nagekeo District, East Nusa Tenggara Province, Indonesia. Since 2022, the school has run a child-friendly library program in partnership with TBP, giving more than 100 students each year access to quality books and a love of reading. On 19 December 2025, tragedy struck when a fire destroyed the school library along with every book inside it. For students who had grown used to reading, borrowing, and dreaming through books, this loss was deeply felt. Today, they urgently need new, high-quality books so their learning journey can continue.
