Goods
donation from friends of England
The end of July
brought a big donation of goods which were sent with a container from the UK.
It included many
things that are very much needed by the poor children at MOET like clothes and
writing material. Many thanks go to FOMOE, Hillary and all other people who
helped in the sorting of this container.
Secondary
book sponsorship from Bookland
Following FOMOE,
there was another generous donation of secondary school books by the company
Bookland International. The manager of the Malawian company which is based in
Blantyre is a former schoolmate of MOET’s director Patterson Majonanga. Special
thanks to Mr. Hastings Matawere.
MOET Outreach
With “MOET Outreach”
the school extends some of its programmes to teach and advise people in the
local villages.
In this picture you see the guardians having lunch after a refresher course in the villages. The other picture shows a kitchen garden managed by one guardian.
The bottom pictures show secondary school students in
the villages being sponsored by MOET through ELMA. This is a distribution of
food and school items.
Women Empowerment Training
The MOET programmes
have a component of community outreach especially for women as well. In this
programme, 60 women are practicing organic kitchen gardens using the concept of
Permaculture.
As most of
these women are single parents, they have to be empowered with various skills
in order to handle some various challenges faced by these underprivileged
households.
In the left picture
you can see the women that took part in the outreach programmes by MOET. In
the right one you see some of the women being taught.
Donation to Mangochi District Hospital
MOET also supports
other charitable services apart from just concentrating on their own school
work.
In the picture you can
see the school donating beds to the local district hospital. This action gained
the attention of the nationwide newspaper “The Daily News”.
