Sponsor a child in Malawi
You can sponsor a child in two EveryChild projects in Malawi which work with communities where HIV and AIDS, adult migration, early marriage, child labour and extreme poverty are separating children from their families. The Mndolera project area has the highest rate of child labour and child trafficking in Malawi. The community in the Bulala project area has a tradition of girls entering into marriage at as early as 12 years old, causing them to miss out on their education and putting them at risk of death through pregnancy at a young age.
EveryChild is working with these communities and local governments to protect children and keep families together. We support families to earn enough so that children are not separated from their families or denied an education in order to work. We support caregivers such as grandparents to look after children who have lost their parents. Our community-based childcare centres and child rights clubs provide opportunities for children to play and learn in a safe environment. We raise awareness about the risks of early marriage and HIV and AIDS, and support the children that are affected by them. For those children who have been forced into early marriage or child labour, we help them return to their families and their education.
By sponsoring a child you will help EveryChild bring about lasting change to the lives of children and their communities in Malawi, as well as the children we work with across the globe. > Sponsor a child in Malawi

Thomas Moyo's blog
"A few months ago I received an official invitation to be a guest speaker at my old school for National Educational Day. I have to say I was a bit nervous. I had a huge job ahead of me to encourage children to continue with their education"
