We are desperately trying to provide around 200 primary school children with new school shoes for the winter. We operate in the highlands of Lesotho where these children face extremely cold winters and either have no shoes or woefully inadequate shoes.

Baby carrier
Quantity Needed: 10
The Mthunzi Foundation supports teenage girls who fall pregnant while still in school and are at risk of missing out on their education. Many of these young mothers are unable to return to the classroom, limiting their chances of building a secure and independent future. At Mthunzi Foundation, we believe education changes everything. When a girl can continue learning, she gains confidence, independence and the opportunity to create a better life for herself and her child. Without that support, her future becomes much more uncertain. A simple baby carrier can make a real difference. It allows young mothers to safely carry their babies while attending school or training, giving them a better chance to continue their education and work towards a brighter future.
Baby bottles
Quantity Needed: 80
The Mthunzi Foundation supports teenage girls who become mothers while still in school, many of whom struggle to continue their education. Without the right support, these young women often face difficult choices that can limit their future opportunities. Education has the power to change the course of their lives. When young mothers are given the chance to keep learning, they gain confidence, independence and the ability to build a better future for themselves and their children. Baby bottles are a simple but essential item. They help young mothers safely feed and care for their babies, making daily life more manageable and giving them a better chance to stay engaged in school or training.
Bottoms (shorts)
Quantity Needed: 180
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.
