In remote communities across Dowa District in Malawi, many children are trying to go to school without proper clothing. It’s not just uncomfortable, it affects how they feel about themselves. Some children feel embarrassed, lose confidence, and sometimes stop going altogether because they are afraid of being laughed at. They can sometimes manage without shoes. They can sometimes manage without a proper top. But they cannot go to school without pants. This is the simple, urgent need we are facing. With something as basic as a pair of shorts, a child can walk into school with dignity, feel confident, and stay in class. It may seem small, but for these children, it can make the difference between attending school or staying home. We urgently need shorts for children of all ages. Any size. Any colour. Pre-loved or new, everything is welcome. Your donation will go directly to children who need it, helping them show up, participate, and continue their education with confidence.

The babies sleep on the floor, we need cots, prams and an any other baby products to help support the needy..

Children with disabilities in Blantyre, Malawi are growing up with very limited access to everyday essentials. For many families, even basic hygiene items are difficult to afford, leaving children without the comfort and care they deserve. Centre for Disability and Elderly Affairs (CDEA) is seeking donations of new or gently used baby bath towels to support underprivileged children with disabilities in the community. Clean, soft towels help keep children warm, comfortable and cared for after bathing, while also supporting dignity and good hygiene. Your support can ease the burden on families and provide simple but meaningful comfort to vulnerable children. Together, we can help ensure these children are cared for with warmth and respect.

Many teenage girls are becoming mothers before they’ve had the chance to finish school or build a future. Deep poverty leaves families struggling, and young girls often feel they have no choice but to prioritise survival over education. Without support, these girls face isolation, lost opportunities and a cycle of hardship that continues into the next generation. Mthunzi Foundation is seeking baby bib donations as part of a broader effort to support teenage mothers with education, emotional care and skills training. With practical help and community support, these young women can rebuild confidence, continue learning and create brighter futures for themselves and their children.
