With an estimated population of 18 million, Malawi is a largely rural country whose economy is dominated by agriculture. However, more than 70% of Malawians live below the poverty line.
Vulnerable to environmental disasters, including flooding, prolonged drought and strong winds, coupled with the regular outbreak of pests and disease, the country's food security is always at risk.
Such vulnerability was further exacerbated in 2021 with the COVID-19 pandemic taking its toll on the country. Numerous hospitals were overwhelmed by patient inflows and lacked vital resources, such as Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
Gift of the Givers interceded in the country, reaching some 150 000 with programmes designed to assist in alleviating the suffering.
#GiftoftheGivers 💚In the aftermath of devastating floods in T/A Ngabu, Chikwawa district, our hearts remain heavy as we witness the ongoing challenges faced by displaced families. Following our initial assessment last week, where we witnessed the heart-breaking results of the floods, we are compelled to take further action to alleviate the suffering of those affected.More than 1600 families have been displaced, their homes and livelihoods washed away by the relentless rains. Last week's assessment revealed the dire circumstances faced by families left with only a handful of food supplies after their harvests were destroyed. In response to this urgent need, Gift of the Givers is continuing our support by providing essential aid to 350 families currently seeking refuge at Linga, Ngabu sports club, and Nkhwangwa Camp.Assorted food items, blankets, plastic sheets , and kitchen utensils will offer a lifeline to these families, providing them with a sense of hope and resilience in the face of adversity. Mr. Harold Suwali, Chairman for Disaster in Ngabu, extends heartfelt gratitude for this continued intervention, recognizing the impact it will have on families who are feeling hopeless after losing everything to the floods. Together, let's stand in solidarity with those affected, offering support and compassion as they navigate this challenging journey of recovery. 🤝To contribute towards our interventions, visit:🌐: www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood #31years #ServingHumanity#DisasterResponse #Malawi ...

#GiftoftheGiversAs the holy month of Ramadan comes to a close, we reflect on the incredible moments of joy, unity, and service that defined this sacred time. At Gift of the Givers, alongside our esteemed partners from One Nation and Care for Others Denmark, we embarked on a journey to bring comfort and nourishment to our Muslim brothers and sisters in Malawi.🕌 Throughout the past three weeks, our dedicated team worked tirelessly to prepare and serve hot Iftar meals at various Masjids across Blantyre. The smiles, laughter, and overwhelming gratitude we witnessed from the thousands of Muslims we reached truly epitomized the spirit of Ramadan.🍲 Together, we had the privilege of feeding approximately 4000 individuals, offering not just food, but also love and compassion in every bite. Each meal, prepared with care and infused with flavour, served as a reminder that kindness is a universal language that transcends boundaries.💖 We are deeply moved by the heartfelt gratitude expressed by Mr. Hussein from Area 7 Masjid in Machinjiri and countless others. Their words remind us of the profound impact of our collective efforts in making this Ramadan season a little brighter for those in need.🙏 As we bid farewell to Ramadan, we carry with us the memories of shared meals, laughter, and acts of kindness.

And in the heart of Blantyre district, Gift of the Givers and Care for Others Denmark are weaving a tale of compassion and unity through the provision of Iftar meals. 🤝Last Thursday, as the sun dipped below the horizon, 300 fasting Muslims in Machinjiri area 7 Masjid were greeted with a sight that warmed their hearts and filled their bellies. Gift of the Givers, in collaboration with Care for Others, reached out with nourishing Iftar meals, carefully prepared to delight the senses and nourish the soul. 🌟But it wasn't just about food; it was about the bonds forged over shared meals, the laughter that echoed through the mosque halls, and the sense of unity that transcended differences. Sheikh Anusa, with a smile as radiant as the moon, spoke of the significance of these moments, "These Iftar meals not only nourish our bodies but also nurture our souls. They remind us of the importance of coming together in love and solidarity." 🕌💖As the aroma of rice, goat meat, porridge, and vegetables filled the air, it was a testament to the power of community and the beauty of Ramadan. Each dish, prepared with love and unity by the women of the masjid, was a symbol of hope and resilience in the face of adversity. 🥘✨In this season of giving, let's continue to spread joy, kindness, and unity, creating a tapestry of love that stretches far beyond the boundaries of Blantyre.Together, we can make every Iftar a celebration of compassion and togetherness. 🌙💚🌍:🌐: www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood #31Years #ServingHumanity#Ramadan2024 #HotMeals #CareForOthers #Malawi ...

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERS 💚In the heart of Balaka, T/A Mphimbi, the sight of women and young girls lifting buckets of the bitter fruit Nyika paints a picture of desperation. Overshadowed by poverty and starvation, hundreds of households struggle to find food for survival. The gloomy faces of the young reflect lost hope and unfulfilled dreams. Many children can't attend school due to severe hunger, and residents resort to drinking from stagnant rivers, risking waterborne diseases like cholera. The situation is dire, but Gift of the Givers heard their cries.Responding swiftly, we distributed 300 essential food parcels in T/A Phalula and T/A Mphimbi, ensuring that families have sustenance. Benson Break, a resident, narrates the struggles: "Nyika is our only accessible food...since Cyclone Freddy, our lives have changed for the worst drastically."

#GiftoftheGivers 💚In a heartwarming effort to bring joy and freedom to physically challenged individuals, Gift of the Givers recently donated a wheelchair to 12-year-old Hussein Maliro in Kwilasa village, T/A Nkoola, Machinga district. Born with a disability, Hussein had never experienced the freedom of moving around the village, confined to crawling within the confines of his household. The moment he received the wheelchair from Gift of the Givers marked a turning point in Hussein's life. Overwhelmed with happiness, he excitedly waved at everyone present. Hussein's grandmother, aged 60, couldn't hide her joy, expressing relief from the days of hardship. With the wheelchair, Hussein can now explore the community freely, and his grandmother can attend to other tasks without the burden of carrying him. As part of our commitment to spreading happiness, we also provided clothes for Hussen and his grandmother.

Good reporter🤗
Today gift of givers were gave us Ramadhan pack, we were very appreciate on what happened today to receive that gift. We were very happy because we are not able to afford it, we ask Allah to bless amin
Human Rights Day 🇿🇦"The life, blood, honour, dignity and possessions of a human is inviolable... Clothe the naked, feed the hungry, provide water to the thirsty, visit the sick... Stand out firmly for justice even as against yourself... Respond to the cry of the oppressed, fight injustice and free the one in bondage..." These instructions from Divine Scripture form the very essence of Human Rights. Only when these are denied to us do we really understand the depth of this teaching but reminders come through various lived experiences as was the case in Pre-1994 Apartheid South Africa.Today, we don't need to look any further than the actions of the Apartheid, Terrorist State of Israel, led by its terrorist leader, Benjamin Netanyahu, his Defence Minister and the Israeli Occupation Forces to understand the concept of human rights abuses in every aspect of existence. Occupation, collective punishment, indefinite imprisonment without charge even of eight-year-olds, torture, sexual abuse, rape, killing of unarmed civilians including children at point blank range, restriction of movement, forced removals of families, stealing of land, homes and possessions by criminal settler thieves, merciless beating of the innocent and now GENOCIDE.The relentless bombing of defenceless people initially with the banned white phosphorus, then 2000kg destructive bombs deliberately targeting hospitals, schools, universities, UN refugee centres, residential suburbs, businesses, industry, bakeries, roads, mosques, churches, desalination plants, water tankers and communication systems. Cutting off electricity, water, food, medicine and medical supplies through an extensive humanitarian aid blockade by road, air and sea. Sinking to the depths of moral depravity by shooting malnourished, starving civilians in a food queue. There can be no greater immoral army on earth, a battalion of cowards that execute unarmed civilians including health care professionals, aid workers, UN staff and journalists, disconnect incubators in hospitals leaving infants to die. There is no clearer account of what a denial of human rights is than what is happening in Gaza, in full view, LIVE, in real-time, witnessed by seven billion people.But, those who deny human rights always fail. The promise of the Almighty that Truth will conquer Falsehood and that the prayer of the oppressed never goes unheard is very comforting and strengthens faith as we in reality are observing the end of the State of Israel and the Birth of a Free Palestine from the River to the Sea. The world is uniting as the Coalition for the Good to defend Humanity against Inhumanity and we will certainly be victorious as the house of evil crumbles.#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood #DisasterResponse #FreePalestine #Genocide #TheCoalitionForGood #TC4G #HumanRightsDay #SA #SouthAfrica ...

Raised by aging grandparents in Lirangwe T/A Lundu, Blantyre rural, life became increasingly difficult. Recognizing the uphill battle, Mphatso decided to venture into urban life, eventually bringing his sister Bertha along. Faced with the harsh realities of financial strain, limited access to education, and vulnerable living conditions, their plight came to our attention through Sub Inspector Gerald Kandaya of Bangwe Police Station.Responding swiftly to their needs, Gift of the Givers stepped in. Our recent delivery of Maize flour, Soya Pieces, Tinned Fish, Cooking oil, and Salt provides immediate relief. But our commitment goes beyond the present challenges. We are also supporting the siblings with funds to secure a safer and more stable residence. Our collaborative efforts with the police aim not only to meet their immediate needs but also to create an environment conducive to education. Together, we strive to rewrite their narrative, offering hope and opportunities for a brighter future.To contribute towards our interventions, visit:🌐: www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood #31years #ServingHumanity#HungerAlleviation #FoodParcels #Malawi ...

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERS💚As the holy month of Ramadan begins, more than 2 million displaced people in Gaza face the harsh reality of having nothing to break their fast during the iftar meal. Day after day, they are forced to scavenge for food to feed themselves and their loved ones. Our team is working tirelessly to alleviate this burden, making a concerted effort to deliver food parcels to the displaced to ensure they have access to food for the Iftar meals. The ongoing state of hunger and starvation endured by the people of Gaza is a harrowing plight, one that takes on even greater weight during the holy month of Ramadan, when the inability to participate in the traditional breaking of the fast can take a profound toll on both physical and spiritual well-being.How can you donate to Palestine?🟢 Gift of the Givers banking details:Bank: Standard BankBranch: PietermaritzburgAccount Number: 052137228Branch Code: 057525Reference: "Palestine"🟢 Backabuddywww.backabuddy.co.za/.../bringing-hope-to-gaza...🟢 GlobalGivingwww.globalgiving.org/.../palestine-emergency.../...🌐 Online donation: giftofthegivers.org/online-payment/When making a donation, use the country's name as a reference.#GiftoftheGivers #SA #SouthAfrica #MiddleEast #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood #Palestine #PalestineEmergencyAppeal #DisasterResponse #Gaza #ReliefAid #FoodParcels #Ramadan #Ramadan2024 ...

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERS 💚The aftermath of Cyclone Freddy continues to impact families in Mulanje, particularly around Traditional Authority Njema. Entire villages have been devastated, with properties destroyed, livestock lost, and crops ruined. Since 2023, families have been living in camps, struggling to meet basic needs. 💔At Gift of the Givers Foundation, we're committed to supporting those affected by this tragedy. Recently, we distributed food and non-food items to 100 beneficiaries at Namchidwa camp in Mulanje. 🙏The relief package included essential items like cream of maize, salt, soap, soya pieces, buckets, cups, and plates. These items may seem simple, but they make a world of difference to families who have lost everything. 💖Hilda Malango, one of the beneficiaries, expressed her gratitude, saying, "Most of the villagers, including myself, had no food. Today, thanks to Gift of the Givers, we will eat properly." 🍲But our work doesn't stop here. We remain committed to supporting these communities as they rebuild their lives and recover from the devastation of Cyclone Freddy.Together, we can make a difference💚:🌐: www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference #GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood#HungerAlleviatio #FoodParcels #Malawi ...

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERS 💚Navigating the challenges posed by the prevailing dry spell in the southern region of Malawi, Gift of the Givers remains steadfast in its commitment to supporting farmers. Our ongoing efforts involve closely monitoring rainfed crops in collaboration with dedicated extension workers across various districts. Recently, we visited Mangochi in Traditional Authority Chilipa, where farmers planted their crops on different dates in response to the onset of rains. Through observations and insightful discussions with farmers like Abiti Daiman, aged 54, we've learned about the crucial advantage of heeding early warning messages issued by the Department of Climate Change and Meteorological. Abiti Daiman shared, "During distribution, we were advised by our extension workers that this year would face a dry spell. We need to take extra care as we plan to plant our crops, and you can see the difference in our fields compared to our fellow farmers." As we navigate these agricultural challenges, collaboration and informed decision-making remain pivotal in ensuring resilient and sustainable farming practices🌾💚.Together we can make a difference :🌐: www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood #31Years #ServingHumanity#HungerAlleviation #AgriculturalSupport #Malawi ...

#GiftoftheGivers💚On World Hunger Day last year, Gift of the Givers Foundation took a pledge to stand by families grappling with the ongoing hunger crisis at Makata in Blantyre Rural. True to our promise, we recently reached out to targeted individuals, offering vital food items to alleviate the pressing need exacerbated by the poor harvest of the last growing season. In this final distribution at Makata ground near the hospital, 130 beneficiaries were supported.The hunger situation in this area has intensified, leaving many households without food. Among the beneficiaries, eighty were from the community, while fifty were clients from the Nutritional Care Support and Treatment program. Each recipient received a package containing a 10 kg bag of cream of maize, ten packets of Soya pieces, one packet of salt, and two tablets of soap.The impact of our support is profoundly felt by individuals like Effy Malizani, aged eighty-nine from Chanika Village T/A Makata, who expressed gratitude for the timely assistance. She shared that she had endured nearly three days without eating Nsima, and the donation came just in time, as if the Gift of the Givers team understood the challenges she faced at home.Mr. Kazembe, the HSA for the Makata area, extended heartfelt thanks to Gift of the Givers, acknowledging the organization's consistent assistance to the vulnerable in the community. Our commitment to making a difference in the lives of those facing hardship remains unwavering.Together, we stand against hunger and for the well-being of every individual we reach💚:#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood #31years #ServingHumanity#HungerAlleviation #FoodParcels #Malawi ...

#GiftoftheGivers💚In Malawi, the grip of hunger tightens its hold on many communities, leaving impoverished households battling daily with the stark reality of food scarcity. The rising rates of malnutrition and other challenges paint a dire picture, emphasizing the desperate need for assistance. Yet, in the most vulnerable areas, where hunger and poverty intertwine, Gift of the Givers stands as a beacon of hope.Through the generous support of One Nation, we've embarked on a mission to serve hot meals every week in various communities throughout February. Gift of the Givers, in collaboration with One Nation, remained steadfast in its commitment to alleviating the hunger crisis affecting communities across the country.In our recent hot meal distribution in Makata, we managed to put smiles on the faces of the people by preparing and distributing a total of 400 hot meal packs. Despite the daily challenges faced by these communities, it is our unwavering support and collective efforts that spark hope in the hearts of those we serve.Witnessing the bright and joyful smiles on the faces of the most vulnerable is a profound testament to our shared purpose. Our dream is to continue bringing relief and support to those affected by life's adversities, be it hunger, poverty, or beyond.

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERS 💚Gift of The Givers took a compassionate step to alleviate the challenges faced by orphanages and Early-Childhood Development Centres (ECD) in Blantyre. We provided essential support to 544 children, offering clothes, shoes, and stationery packs to promote their physical and emotional well-being. This initiative aimed to address the persistent struggle of these centres in providing necessities to the children under their care due to limited funds. The distribution included items such as ladies’ tops, trousers, shirts, shorts, girls’ dresses, shoes, and stationery packs with exercise books, pencils, pens, ruler, sharpener, and eraser.Notable orphanages like Bahasi ECD centre, New Dawn ECD centre, Courageous Kids’ Foundation, Steka, Njamba, Chikondi, and Enriching Lives benefited from this support. Mrs. Josephine Mussa from Chikondi Orphanage expressed gratitude, highlighting the positive impact on the children's enthusiasm for education.

Good initiative
#GiftoftheGivers💚Agriculture stands as the cornerstone of growth in Malawi, constituting approximately 37% of GDP, employing 80% of the labour force, and contributing significantly to foreign exchange earnings. Sesame, a vital cash crop in the Lower Shire region, is cultivated for its seeds, primarily used as a cooking oil source and an ingredient in various foods. Recognizing the challenges faced by local farmers due to the absence of formal markets, Gift of the Givers has joined hands with the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security to bolster sesame production.This year, we embarked on a collaborative effort to support farmers in Chikwawa, providing sesame seeds and fostering an organized approach to farming. A total of 3,700 farmers in Mitole and Mikalango Extension Planning Areas have received support through organized clubs of no more than 30 farmers each. In a recent monitoring visit to Mitole, we observed promising growth, with many farmers successfully cultivating the crop, despite challenges posed by a delayed translating process amid the ongoing dry spell.A heartfelt commendation comes from a 48-year-old Group Village Ntondeza in Traditional Authority Katunga, expressing gratitude for the seed support. He encourages fellow farmers to nurture their crops diligently. Gift of the Givers remains committed to transforming farming into a sustainable business for communities.Together, let's cultivate prosperity from the roots up! 🌾💚:🌐: www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood #31years #ServingHumanity#HungerAlleviation #AgriculturalSupport #Malawi ...

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERS💚The 2023/2024 rainfall season, influenced by El Nino conditions, has cast a harsh shadow over Malawi's lean season, making it even leaner. Balaka district in the southern region has been particularly hard-hit by extremely dry conditions, adversely affecting maize and other crops anticipated for harvest. The aftermath of Cyclone Freddy has left many families struggling to recover. In response to the urgent need highlighted by the Balaka District Council, Gift of the Givers stepped in, distributing vital food items to 300 households under T/A Phalula in the district.One of the beneficiaries, 57-year-old Felesita Kambalame, caring for her chronically ill husband and three orphaned children, shared a heartfelt experience: “It was not easy to procure fertilizer for my farm, and now all my crops have dried up. Each day passes without knowing where our next meal would come from. I am truly grateful for the food you have given me; today would have been my fourth day on an empty stomach.”The distribution included essentials like maize flour, Soya Pieces, Salt, and Tablets of Laundry Soap. Gift of the Givers remains committed to alleviating the impact of severe drought and ensuring that no one goes to bed hungry.Together, let's make a difference in the lives of those facing the harsh realities of food scarcity💚:🌐: www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference #GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood#HungerAlleviatio #FoodParcels #Malawi ...

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERS💚In Malawi, where an estimated 70% of the population grapples with poverty, the challenges of food insecurity, limited income, and poor housing conditions are stark. Among the most vulnerable are the elderly, facing the brunt of financial struggles. In Makalani village, Blantyre, One Nation and Gift of the Givers are dismantling the barriers of poverty through a transformative housing project, bringing safe and secure homes to two elderly households.Four years have passed since One Nation, in partnership with Gift of the Givers, provided homes for ten elderly households in the same Makalani area. This ongoing project stands as a testament to the positive impact our collaboration brings to vulnerable communities in Malawi.Elida Kassim, one of the elderly beneficiaries witnessing her new home take shape, expressed profound joy: “I am so happy to see this project coming to life before my eyes. With my old age, this is probably the kindest thing anyone has ever done for me. I have always feared that my home would collapse from heavy rains because it is very old. But now, I will be able to live in peace knowing that I have a new home. Thank you, One Nation and Gift of the Givers.”This heart-warming endeavour reflects our shared commitment to transforming lives and ensuring dignified living conditions for those in need.Together, we break the cycle of poverty and build a brighter future! 💚🏡:🌐: www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood #31Years #ServingHumanity#HumanDevelopment #Housing #OneNationUk #Malawi ...

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERS💚The unwavering partnership between One Nation UK and Gift of the Givers continues to make a transformative impact on hundreds of vulnerable families in Malawi. Together, we've empowered communities, constructed secure homes for the most vulnerable, and witnessed the heartwarming change brought about by crucial interventions.Our collective efforts persist in liberating households from the relentless hunger crisis. In a recent initiative, One Nation provided hot meals to an overwhelming 800 people in Chilomoni and Mataka. Through the One Nation Jumuah Feed program, families received the privilege of a free hot meal—400 served at the newly constructed Rizwaan Masjid in Makata and another 400 at Chilomoni Masjid.Amidst the challenging dry spell affecting maize crops across the country, these hot meals have become a beacon of hope in both communities. This act of generosity not only nourishes those in need but also stands as a flagship of humanity.Sheikh Imedu Osman expressed gratitude, saying, “A lot of people are suffering from the hunger crisis. There is so much hunger in this country, so we would like to thank One Nation for this very kind gesture. It is not a small thing to give out a free meal during these challenging economic times. May Allah bless you all at Gift of the Givers and at One Nation. Alhamdulillah One Nation for the Hot Meals.”Our commitment to alleviating hunger and fostering humanity remains steadfast.

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERSIn our unwavering commitment to uplift families, Gift of the Givers has introduced a fresh perspective to our Zakat Food Distribution project this year. We have embraced a new approach by ushering in new committee members, enhancing transparency in leadership across our connected communities. The selection process concluded in January, with new leaders appointed in targeted areas like Machinjiri in Blantyre, GVH Minama in Zomba, and Chilipa in Mangochi.The enthusiasm of the newly elected committee leaders was evident as they actively participated in our recent Zakat food distributions in Zomba GVH Minama. Over 150 beneficiaries in this area alone are benefiting from our monthly food packs.Gladys Mofolo, a 55-year-old beneficiary from Zomba, shares her gratitude, saying, "May Allah continue to bless Gift of the Givers for continuously remembering our struggle and making it easy for us through this zakat program. Our lives are improving, and we have food every month to carry us through the difficult times. Alhamdulillah."Our monthly food packs, comprising essential items like Cream of maize, Likuni Phala, Soya Pieces, Salt, Tea Bags, Tablets of soap, Sugar, Cooking Oil, and Cans of Tinned Fish, play a crucial role in the livelihood and well-being of these deserving families.Together we can make a difference:🌐: www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference #GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood#HungerAlleviatio #FoodParcels #Malawi ...

Brilliant story, this shows Gift of the Givers is always committed to uprifiting and change the livelihoods of the deserving families
#GIFTOFTHEGIVERSAs the hunger crisis deepens in Malawi, affecting over 4 million individuals, the plight of families struggling for sustenance becomes increasingly dire. With the country heavily reliant on agriculture, the recurring cyclones disrupt farmers' ability to recover properly each year. The aftermath leaves a gap in the agricultural sector, with crops washed away and no means for farmers to bridge this void. This year, the situation worsened after Cyclone Freddy, and the dry spell currently gripping Malawi dashed hopes for families who waited for the rainy season to cultivate their own food.In Nsanje district, 75-year-old Jakison Lupiya, a father of 5, shares his heart-wrenching experience: "I was hoping I would be saved with pumpkins from my farmland, but this year there is no hope. We end up going to bed without eating anything for three days as there is no hope left for us."To address this crisis, Gift of the Givers reached out to 300 families in TA Mbenje, Nsanje district, who lost everything to Cyclone Freddy and were given new land by the government. These families, having experienced the worst of the ongoing hunger crisis, received food and non-food items, including maize flour, buckets, plates, laundry soap, salt, soya pieces, and plastic sheeting.Clara Isaac, a 35-year-old single mother of four, expressed her gratitude, saying, "As a single mother, I was pained to see my children go to bed hungry, praying for God's intervention. Upon seeing the support from Gift of the Givers, I knew that God has answered my prayers."Our commitment to alleviating hunger remains steadfast and we strive to bring hope and relief to those facing the harshest realities.Together we can make a difference:🌐: www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference #GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood#HungerAlleviatio #FoodParcels #Malawi ...

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERSCases of cancer continue to be a growing challenge in Malawi. The incidence rate of Oesophageal cancer has rated Malawi at number 1 in the southern region of Africa followed by Cervical cancer and Kaposi Sarcoma. However, the lack of adequate resources subjects those diagnosed with Cancer to untimely deaths. Further on, those receiving treatment barely make it due to poor nutrition and food insecurity. In realizing the need, Gift of the Givers is providing Sibusiso and Corn Soy food supplements and a basic food pack to Ndimoyo Palliative care Center in Salima district. " When I was diagnosed with Oesophageal cancer, I was told I would only be able to eat liquid or pasty foods and that they needed to be highly nutritious, this was a huge blow as my usual meal I could afford used to be nsima and vegetables. I am one of the lucky ones to be a patient at Ndimoyo clinic and have the rare chance of receiving Sibusiso food supplement every month". These were the words of appreciation from Edward Masiya. Gift of the Givers supports 30 severely and 80 moderately malnourished patients at Ndimoyo every month.Together we can make a difference:🌐:http://www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood#HeathCare #NutritionalSupport #Malawi ...

#GiftoftheGivers💚Through our steadfast partnership with Blantyre DHO, Gift of the Givers Malawi is making a meaningful impact through the Nutrition Care Support and Treatment (NCST) project this year. In February 2024, our dedicated team reached out to fourteen health centres, extending assistance to 905 individuals bravely battling various chronic illnesses. Within this cohort, 227 were identified as severely malnourished, 517 as moderately malnourished, and hearteningly, 161 were discharged from the program as they achieved a normal Body Mass Index.The targeted malnourished patients were thoughtfully selected from TB registers, ART registers, and palliative registers. During the NCST clinics, our collaborative efforts with the DHO team and volunteers encompassed comprehensive nutrition assessments, health education, counselling, and the distribution of essential food supplements. Severe cases received 10 kgs of maize flour, ten packets of soya pieces, and sixty sachets of RUTF, while moderate cases were provided with 10 kgs of corn soya blend porridge and 1kg Genesis fortified porridge.To ensure accurate and efficient reporting, all volunteers and NCST focal persons diligently entered each client into new registers and client management forms. This meticulous approach safeguards against errors and guarantees the provision of precise data.Our commitment to empowering health and nutrition remains unwavering, and we express our gratitude to everyone involved in making a difference in the lives of those in need. Together, we continue to build a healthier, more resilient community. 💚To contribute towards our interventions, visit:🌐: www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood #31years #ServingHumanity#Huealthcare #nutritionalsupport #Malawi ...

Good repoter ever🙌🙌
#GiftoftheGiversOn this Throwback Thursday, we fondly reminisce about a heart-warming moment from the past year when Gift of the Givers had the privilege of reaching out to the incredible young souls at Malawi Girls (MAGI) Foundation in Chigumula. MAGI serves as a sanctuary for children and adolescent girls facing challenging backgrounds and those at risk of sexual abuse, including the rescue of abandoned new-borns and babies in distress.Our organization, fuelled by a commitment to spread joy and happiness, donated new clothes and bed shoes to the girls at MAGI House. The excitement and bright smiles that lit up their faces were a true testament of the joy they felt upon getting new clothes. We believe that every child deserves not just necessities, but moments that make them feel valued and cherished.But our journey with MAGI doesn't end with this beautiful throwback. This year, Gift of the Givers is proud to announce that we will be providing 300 KGs of Likuni Phala monthly to Malawi Girls to support with the school feeding program they are running. Ensuring a healthy diet for these young hearts is another step in our ongoing commitment to their well-being.Together we can makes these moments possible, Let's continue to spread love and make a lasting impact together 💚🌈:🌐:http://www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference#ForTheGreaterGood #31YearsOfServingHumanity#inkinddonations #malawigirls #Malawi ...

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERSIn the heart of Machinga district, TA Nkoola is witnessing transformation through Gift of the Givers Foundation's Hunger Alleviation Project. Monthly food distributions, coupled with crucial agricultural interventions, are making a profound impact on the lives of 120 beneficiaries. Simogane Musa, a 54-year-old community member, expressed deep appreciation during the assessment of the rainfed cropping period. "Every month, we receive food packs, the organization supports us with annual farm inputs, and I am also a beneficiary of livestock – five goats," shares Simogane. With the application of both fertilizer and livestock manure, he anticipates a bountiful harvest. 🌾💙 Gift of the Givers is sowing the seeds of change, fostering sustainable agriculture and empowering communities.To contribute towards our interventions, visit:🌐: www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood #31Years #ServingHumanity#HungerAlleviation #AgriculturalSupport #Malawi ...

Good development, keep it up.🙏🙌 I love it ❤️
#GiftoftheGiversIn our ongoing commitment to ensure that every household has access to safe potable drinking water, Gift of the Givers Foundation has recently completed a significant water supply project in Chileka, Blantyre. We drilled three boreholes in Mode village (T/A Kunthebwe), Kankhonde village (T/A Kunthembwe), and Chapotera village (T/A Kuntaja), providing a lifeline to those who were previously forced to drink from unsafe sources such as mud pits and flowing rivers.These boreholes mean more than just access to clean water; they signify freedom from the hardships of fetching water from unsafe locations, reducing the risk of waterborne diseases. Additionally, we fully rehabilitated a borehole in Kalombola village (T/A Kuntaja), ensuring its functionality for the community.To ensure the sustainability of these water sources, Gift of the Givers, in collaboration with the Blantyre District Water Department, provided Community Based Management (CBM) training to the committees of these four boreholes. A committee of 11 people from each borehole underwent these trainings, gaining valuable knowledge on maintaining the boreholes, practicing good hygiene to prevent waterborne diseases.Empowering communities with access to clean water is not just our goal; it's a shared commitment for a healthier, more sustainable future.💙🚰To contribute towards our interventions visit:🌐 : www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference📞 : 0800 786 911#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood #31YearsOfServingHumanity #watersupply #boreholes #Malawi ...

#GiftoftheGiversGift of the Givers strives to ensure that children and young adults have the nutrition they require for their daily health and development. As conditions of food insecurity continue to escalate in different parts of the country, child cantered institutions like orphanages are also challenged by lack of basic needs for children under their care.

#GiftoftheGiversAt the tender age of 2, Shabilu's world changed after a brief illness left him paralyzed. His mother has carried him on her back for years—doing chores, taking him to the hospital, and navigating life's hurdles together.Life for Shabilu meant crawling on his knees and hands when not on his mother's back, as he never had the simple joy of a wheelchair. His family faced immense challenges, with Shabilu's predicament putting a strain on their ability to afford a decent home, proper clothes, and food. Shabilu's mother, torn between caring for him and providing for her three other children, faced difficulties in securing casual labour.In a bid to alleviate their burdens, Gift of the Givers extended a helping hand to Shabilu and his family in Nkola Village, Machinga District. We provided Shabilu with a much-needed wheelchair and diapers, recognizing the importance of dignity and independence. Additionally, we provided essential food supplies and clothes for the entire family, aiming to ease the daily challenges they face.Shabilu's story is a testament to resilience and the power of collective compassion. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of individuals like Shabilu. 💙🤝To contribute towards our interventions visit:🌐 : www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference📞 : +265 888 23 40 00#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference#ForTheGreaterGood #31YearsOfServingHumanity#healthcare #wheelchairs #communityoutreach #Malawi ...

#GiftoftheGiversDeforestation poses a significant threat to our planet, contributing to climate change and its severe consequences. Globally, 10% of global warming is attributed to forest loss and damage, releasing stored carbon back into the atmosphere. In Malawi, the impact is felt deeply, with villages often being unwitting contributors to this crisis by cutting down trees without replanting.One such area, Zomba Malosa in Traditional Authority Malemia, heavily relies on charcoal burning for income, leading to the depletion of trees, and leaving lands bare. Gift of the Givers recognizes the urgency of addressing this issue and recently planted 350 trees at Malosa mountain in Zomba district.Malawi Government, through the Zomba District Forest Office, has launched a campaign to plant at least 3 million trees this year. We are proud to support this initiative, contributing to the restoration of forests and the fight against severe climate change consequences.Mrs. Grace Kwelepete, Member of Parliament for Zomba Malosa constituency, expressed gratitude for Gift of the Givers' timely support. These trees not only aid in reforesting the community but also act as a barrier against mudslides that threaten villages.Together, let's sow the seeds of change and safeguard our environment for future generations. 🌱🌍To contribute towards our interventions visit:🌐 : www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference📞 : 0800 786 911#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood#31YearsOfServingHumanity #ClimateAction #Malawi ...

#GiftoftheGiversGift of the Givers envisions a future where able beneficiaries are vibrantly independent and able to run their households as successful farmers. In some of our most recent projects under hunger alleviation, we supported farmers with livestock where we launched a powerful goat-pass program that is now visibly showing exciting results.In Chilipa, the Awalu family expressed great joy seeing how their goats handed to them by Gift of the Givers are now starting to reproduce. Amina Awalu says the goats are a life-changing gift to their family as they will be able to sustain them financially in the next few years to come. Amina and her family are thrilled to be extending the newly birthed goat which is in good health to the next family of beneficiaries so that they experience the same advantages in the future.Beyond our highly embraced livestock intervention in Chilipa, rain fed farmers whom we gave farm inputs in November last year, are now hopeful for a good crop this year since they finalized their planting activities during the first weeks of January. Chilipa farmers say they are quite pleased with the progression of their crops, and they are confident that there will be food provision and sustainability in their homes once they harvest.As Gift of the Givers, we distributed 203 male and female goats altogether to 45 families in Chilipa, where 180 were female and 23 were male. During this rain fed farming season we distributed farm input to over 1900 farmers which were meant to prepare them for the planting season. The inputs distributed to farmers included: maize seeds, Groundnuts and Beans seeds, 10kgs of NPK Fertilizer, UREA, and pesticides.Together we can make a difference:🌐: www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference #GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood#hungeralleviatio #FoodParcels #Malawi ...

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERSAt just 16 years old, Blandina M’baluku from T/A Chiswe in Blantyre has taken on the enormous responsibility of being the sole guardian to her three siblings, including her 8-month-old sister. Their world was shattered when their mother succumbed to a brief illness related to high blood pressure earlier this year, and to add to their woes, their father abandoned them soon after.Life became an uphill battle for Blandina as she engaged in casual labour to feed her siblings and cover their rent. However, amidst the challenges, a ray of hope emerged during one of the under-5 clinic visits to Bangwe Health Center. Blandina and her youngest sibling caught the attention of one of the HSAs at Bangwe, who introduced them to Gift of the Givers.In a heartfelt response to the children's needs, Gift of the Givers extended a helping hand, delivering essentials such as maize flour, soya pieces, cooking oil, tinned fish, tablets of soap, clothes, shoes, baby diapers, and blankets. Moreover, the organization ensured stability by covering their rent for two months. Currently collaborating with YONECO and Child Services, Gift of the Givers is actively working to reunite Blandina's family back in the village.Blandina's story is a testament to resilience, and together, we can make a difference in the lives of those facing adversity. 🤝💚To contribute towards our interventions, visit:🌐: www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood #31Years #ServingHumanity#HealthCare #HungerAlleviation #Malawi ...

#GiftoftheGiversIn the aftermath of Cyclone Freddy, the journey to recovery continues for the affected families. Gift of the Givers, in collaboration with the Al Khair Foundation, is tirelessly working to ensure that those who lost their homes find solace in reliable and sustainable housing.Currently, we are excited to share that 10 houses are under construction in TA Nkoola in Machinga district. These houses, made possible through the generous support of Al Khair Foundation, will provide safe and secure shelters for families who have endured living in homes that leak whenever it rains.Among the beneficiaries is 90-year-old Silika Iweni. For months, he and his wife have faced sleepless nights in their temporary shelter, enduring the cold as they sat by the fire to keep warm. Now, thanks to the ongoing construction, Silika and his wife can look forward to a change in their lives. Their new home, expected to be completed in a few weeks, symbolizes not only shelter but also the warmth of community and support.This project is more than just construction; it's about rebuilding lives, restoring hope and dignity.

#MotivationMondayHappy Monday, everyone! As we embark on a new week, let's draw inspiration from the words of our founder, Dr. Imtiaz Sooliman: "We must not see need as a burden, but as a gift that allows us to lift up people in our community."Every challenge we encounter, every need we come across, is an opportunity to make a positive impact. Instead of viewing it as a burden, let's see it as a chance to extend a helping hand, to be a beacon of hope for those in our community.Today, let's carry this mindset with us — the belief that our ability to meet the needs of others is a gift, a privilege that allows us to create real, meaningful change. Embrace the week ahead with open hearts and a determination to make a difference. Together, we can lift each other up and build a stronger, more compassionate community.Wishing you all a week filled with purpose, positivity, and the joy that comes from giving! 💪.To contribute towards our interventions, visit:🌐: www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood #31Years #ServingHumanity#MotivationMonday #Malawi ...

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERS💚Malawi, a vital supplier of Sesame seeds to Japan, continues to make strides in the agricultural sector. Last year, over 3,000 metric tons of Sesame seeds were proudly supplied to Japan from the rich fields of Chikwawa District. However, the unsung heroes behind this success, the small-scale farmers, face numerous challenges in their daily lives.Recognizing the hardships these farmers endure, Takemoto Oil & Fat Corporation Limited and Itochu Corporation Limited, key buyers of Malawian Sesame, partnered with Gift of the Givers to give back to the community in a meaningful way. with this partnership, we have drilled nine boreholes, providing clean water to Sesame farmers in three Traditional Authorities in Chikwawa District.During the handover ceremony in Chiphang'ombe village, Mr. Kazumichi Shiojiri, the Head of Food and Business for Itochu Corporation, expressed their commitment, saying, "We feel obliged to support these farmers as Sesame seed is one of the major ingredients in our food in Japan. We intend to build two warehouses here in Chikwawa to purchase more Sesame Seeds for export."In addition to the boreholes, last month, Sesame farmers received Sesame seeds to cultivate in their farms, with the assurance that a market with good prices will be provided for the farmers.This collaboration not only addresses immediate needs but also lays the foundation for sustainable growth and prosperity for Malawi's Sesame farming community. 🌱🚰💚Together we can make a difference:🌐 : www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference📞 : +265 888 23 40 00#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference#ForTheGreaterGood #31yearsofServingHumanity#WaterSupply #boreholes #Malawi ...

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERSAs we embrace the blessed day of Jumu'ah, let's reflect on the wisdom of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him): "Do not consider any act of kindness insignificant, even meeting someone with a cheerful face."In a world that can sometimes feel heavy, let our acts of kindness be a beacon of light.

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERSIn the spirit of compassion and generosity, our Zakat Project, a vital part of our Hunger Alleviation efforts, continues to make a positive impact on the lives of deserving Muslim families in Malawi. At Gift of the Givers, we understand the pressing challenge of hunger that grips underprivileged communities, where accessing a decent meal a day can be an arduous task.This January, as many Malawians are facing hunger due to food insecurity, we are thrilled to share that our Zakat Food Distribution project reached 883 families in Blantyre, Zomba, Mangochi and Machinga Districts. Our target areas are Muslim majority communities, however, needy non Muslim families also receive a food pack under the hunger alleviation project. Patuma Ngalawa, an elderly woman from Kumbewe, expressed her gratitude, saying, "Alhamdulillah! May the almighty ALLAH reward Gift of the Givers for the continuous support. Thank you for investing your money, energy, and transportation to ensure that this food gets to us. This food helps us forget about the hunger challenges in our homes. Thank you, Gift of the Givers, for supporting us".Together we can make a difference :🌐:https://giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference#ForTheGreaterGood #31YearsofServingHumanity#HungerAlleviation #Malawi ...

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERSIn the heart of T/A Nkoola, Machinga, unfolds the story of 74-year-old Taonere Damson—a story marked by bravery and unwavering resilience. Damson's journey took an unexpected turn at a young age when a landmine accident in Mozambique claimed one of her legs. Since then, her life has been a daily struggle for normalcy and mobility, often navigating the ground on her hands and knees."I wish my life had turned out different. But I cannot turn back the hands of time. My mobility is becoming a challenge every day because of my age," shares Damson.Gift of the Givers encountered Damson during an assessment in Nkoola, moved by her heartbreaking story. In response, we provided her with crutches, offering a glimpse of relief for her mobility challenges. Damson receives a monthly food pack to ease her suffering as she is unable to provide food for herself, her mentality challenged son and her young granddaughter, all of whom depend on her for survival. Looking ahead, our organization is committed to a more significant intervention—we are building a new home for Damson, recognizing her physical limitations and advancing age.We believe that by extending this crucial assistance, we're not just rebuilding a home; we're rebuilding hope for Damson and her family. Even in her advanced age and challenging circumstances, Damson deserves a future filled with hope and comfort. Her new home will be a haven, enabling her to live more comfortably and walk with ease.Join us in this journey of compassion and restoration!

#GiftoftheGiversIn response to the second flood-hit community amidst heavy rains in and around Harare, Gift of the Givers Foundation took immediate action. Another somber Christmas unfolded for many who lost everything to the fast-flowing waters.While no missing persons were reported, numerous families remained on the ground as Social Welfare officers tirelessly encouraged them to seek shelter until the weather eased. Families in our secured facilities found solace in shared rooms, offering a semblance of comfort amid adversity.Understanding the void left by possessions, our team deemed it crucial to provide each head of the family with personalized buckets filled with necessities—food, hygiene items, toys, games, crayons, books, soccer balls, snacks, juice, and drinks. Simultaneously, the communal pantry, catering lunch and dinner to all, received additional support.The plight of numerous young children (infant to 5 yrs) underscored the need for diapers, blankets, mattresses, pillows, baby food, clothing, and mosquito nets.Your contributions matter!

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERSAs Gift of the Givers, our commitment to alleviating hunger in communities remains unwavering. The stark reality of families going to bed hungry, surviving on meager food like Mangoes and Cassava, underscores the daily hardships faced by many Malawians. We recently had the honor of bringing immense joy to the community of Gomani, T/A Kunthembwe in Chileka, through a crucial food pack donation reaching 100 beneficiaries. This act of compassion was complemented by the distribution of clothing items and shoes, extending warmth and comfort to those in need.The day in Gomani concluded with a hot meal distribution, with the support from One Nation we distributed 200 hot meals under One Nation's Jumma Feed project in Malawi. The items distributed included essentials like 10 kg packs of cream of maize, soya pieces, salt, soap, men’s shorts and shirts, ladies’ shoes, ladies’ tops, and scarves.Margret Hamitoni, a 60-year-old beneficiary, expressed her gratitude, saying, “I am so happy that we have been remembered like this today. I will be going to bed with a full stomach now that I have some food. There are days we go to bed on an empty stomach, but our story has changed today because of Gift of the Givers. Thank you for your unwavering kindness.”Together we can make a difference :🌐:https://giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference#ForTheGreaterGood #31YearsofServingHumanity#HungerAlleviation #OneNationUk #Malawi ...

#GiftoftheGiversAt Gift of the Givers, our mission goes beyond providing food; it's about enabling students to thrive in their academic journey without the worry of where their next meal will come from. Our initiative to donate food packs to needy students in universities aims to combat food insecurity, ensuring that students have consistent access to nourishing meals to fuel their studies and ambitions.In 2023, we proudly supported 159 students at Malawi Universities of Business and Applied Sciences (MUBAS) and Kamudzu University of Health Sciences (KUHES) by providing monthly food packs. Our goal was clear: to relieve students from the burden of hunger and prevent any interruptions in their education due to the need to seek menial labour for sustenance.Your support has allowed us to make a significant impact in the lives of these students. By ensuring their nutritional needs are met, we're empowering them to focus on their studies, pursue their dreams, and contribute positively to their communities.

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERSAt Gift of the Givers, we are devoted to advocating for young people’s education in Malawi, we believe that hunger should never stand in the way of education. Our unwavering dedication to supporting students continues through our monthly food assistance program for students facing financial constraints.Partnering with Munazzamat al Dawah al Islamia (MADA) schools, including Asalaam Girls and Al Bakir Boys Boarding Secondary Schools, we provide essential monthly food packs containing 800kgs of maize flour and 450kgs of rice. These students face significant financial hurdles, with over 30% unable to pay school fees, making our intervention crucial.Last December, we were honoured to have Dr. Ahmed Mohamed Adam, the Secretary General for MADA, present at our distribution exercise. Dr. Ahmed acknowledged Gift of the Givers Foundation for the provisions and requested for more support as their funding has significantly been reduced due to the fighting in Sudan, the country where its headquarters used to be before the war broke. For three years, Gift of the Givers has been a beacon of hope, supporting approximately 580 students with basic food items. Our aim goes beyond providing meals; it's about ensuring no student goes to bed hungry. By addressing their nutritional needs, we contribute to their overall health and wellbeing, empowering them to focus on their studies and thrive academically.Education is a fundamental right, and through nourishment, we pave the way for these students to grasp that right with both hands. We firmly believe that every individual deserves an equal opportunity to education and a promising future.To contribute towards our interventions, visit:🌐: www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #FortheGreaterGood #31YearsOfServingHumanity#HungerAlleviation #FoodParcels #Malawi ...

#GiftoftheGiversMalawi's agricultural sector serves as the bedrock of its economy, yet small-scale farmers face significant hurdles in securing a decent livelihood, with a large portion of the population living below the poverty line. At Gift of the Givers Foundation, we recognize the struggles of these farmers, especially in the wake of increased extreme weather events that have recently impacted the country.In collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture in 2023, we initiated a crucial intervention to support smallholder farmers. Our focus was on empowering 4,000 farmers with essential hybrid farm inputs such as Maize seed, Ground nuts, NPK and UREA fertilizers, along with pesticides, for both the rainfed and winter cropping seasons. Additionally, we provided comprehensive training in modern farming methodologies, aiming to equip these farmers with the knowledge and tools necessary for sustainable and resilient farming practices.Our commitment remains unwavering in supporting rural communities and uplifting small-scale farmers who form the backbone of Malawi's agriculture. By investing in their empowerment and providing crucial resources, we aim to contribute to a brighter and more sustainable future for these farmers and their families.Together we can make a difference:🌐 : www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference📞 : +265 888 23 40 00#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference#ForTheGreaterGood #31YearsOfServingHumanity#HungerAlleviation #AgriculturalSupport #Malawi ...

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERSIn a our quest to continue uplifting the lives of the most vulnerable communities, we look closely and attentively into offering sustainable and empowering solutions for our beneficiaries. It is an exciting time for some of our Zakat beneficiaries in T/A Malemia, Zomba District, as they have recently been granted an opportunity to attain knowledge in small business management through a 3-day in-depth business training.Following recent assessments of our Zomba Zakat beneficiaries, we noted that there are some individuals who can exceedingly benefit from being empowered to stand on their own financially. A total of 34 beneficiaries attended the 3-day business training and were provided with capital to start their own businesses. The knowledge attained through the training will enable beneficiaries to navigate through diverse business atmospheres and critically analyse the different risks and opportunities in business.One of the beneficiaries, Bertha Chikagwa echoed words of gratitude and high praises to Gift of the Givers saying the knowledge she has been equipped with will help her navigate through her business journey with confidence. “I consider myself a very lucky person for being given all of this knowledge for free. I feel as if it is really Allah's will that I am one of the few lucky ones to be given this big opportunity.

#GIFTOFTHEGIVERSIn a heartwarming gesture of compassion, Gift of the Givers has stepped in to alleviate the plight of a desperately impoverished family grappling with severe hunger in Sita Village, T/A Kapeni, by delivering essential food items to their household.During one of our recent visits to area, our team was moved by a distressing encounter where they found a 12-year-old girl lying desperately on the ground. Our team discovered that the 12-year-old had gone some days without any food which made her extremely weak. The team gave the child some money from their pockets to buy food for the day. As Gift of the Givers, our hearts are profoundly touched by this story, as it continues to reflect the harshness of the hunger crisis in Malawi, where impoverished families are becoming even more vulnerable in the face of extreme hunger conditions.We discovered that the girl comes from an orphaned household with three other siblings, and are looked after by their young aunt, Jessie Banda. We responded by taking some basic food items to the family which included maize flour, soya pieces, cooking oil, tinned fish, salt, sugar and soap.Jessie couldn’t believe that the team came back all the way just for them and couldn’t stop thanking them. “We didn’t know what we were going to eat today, there was no food in the house. It is always difficult for us to find enough food for the whole family. The food you have brought today will make such a big difference. Thank you, Gift of the Givers,” said Jessie.Gift of the Givers will continue to support the Mangani family with monthly food items and other needs including the children’s education needs while finding a lasting solution for the family. We have ongoing projects in the area to deal with the hunger problem which include agriculture support and nutrition care support & treatment project.Help us reach more families like this one who desperately need our assistance.🌐 : www.giftofthegivers.org/make-a-difference📞 : +265 888 23 40 00#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference#ForTheGreaterGood #31yearsofServingHumanity#HungerAlleviation #FoodParcels #Malawi ...
