Mthunzi Foundation: "Determination and Sacrifice"<br />Mthunzi Foundation has a small team of seven volunteers, including teachers, health professionals, and social service workers, who have fully dedicated themselves to working on a voluntary basis. Their mission is to educate young women about the value and importance of education. The determination of these volunteers demonstrates that Mthunzi Foundation has a greater mission: to uplift and empower young teenage mothers.<br />The teachers on the ground have begun to lay the foundation for these young mothers, informing them how education can transform their lives and why they should pursue it despite the challenges they may face. The saying goes, "If you educate a woman, you educate a nation." This is why Mthunzi Foundation will stop at nothing to find ways to help these vibrant teenage girls obtain skills or education by providing the necessary resources for them to achieve their dreams.<br />This endeavor can be made possible through partnerships and sponsorships that provide financial assistance and other provisions to help fulfill the aspirations of each teenage mother. These girls are intelligent and full of courage.

Severe flooding across Southern Malawi has displaced thousands of people, including an estimated 5,000 people with disabilities in districts such as Chikwawa and Nsanje. Many lost their homes, mobility aids, and essential belongings as floodwaters swept through villages, making evacuation and daily survival extremely difficult. People with disabilities are among the most vulnerable in this crisis. Without access to wheelchairs, blankets, food, and basic medical support, many are stranded in unsafe conditions and exposed to cold, illness, and further harm. Immediate assistance is needed to restore dignity, mobility, and safety as families begin the long process of recovery.
