We Take care of orphaned children in Malawi to give them love, education and hope

Story

In October 2011 we had to stop building the new bedroom block for the Children's Centre as we ran out of funds. The roof is on and the main structure complete and we would love to be able to finish it soon. The building will become the bedrooms and study area for our 19 resident boys so that we have more space in the main house. We have a total of 33 resident children at the Centre.

Below is a table of predicted costs to completion for the building and we are hoping that you may be willing to pay for something on the list. Even if you can only afford a few panes of glass, it will really help us. Please indicate what you are paying for in the message box.
