Trinitas 2020 update

We were so pleased to be able to catch up with Trinitas from Tina Pads. 

 It was a huge, beautiful surprise receiving your donation today. The money will be used to purchase fabric to provide pads for around 120 girls, possibly more if all goes well! These will be distributed to girls in the Mzimba District who rarely receive support like this as they are some 800km from Blantyre.

 These pads will ensure the girls can continue at school for another two to three years, eliminating absenteeism and sustaining their hunger for education. They bring equality to boys and girls - so thank you very much.

Unfortunately, it will take about a month to get the fabric sent in from China as we can't find good fabric in Malawi. It's important the material is durable. 

With thanks

Trinitas Mhango Kunashe

And remember, if you ever wondered how these pads work, watch this video for an explanation from some of our students.

Thank you for your kind message I'm always grateful to hear from you 😊   We are all doing just fine And our school garden has just begun.We have planted some maize as we are in rain season.  Many thanks to GWC for the support 🙏 May God bless you all 🙌 .  We managed to purchase a tank and pump and installation is in process. We hope to make it ready by the end of the rain season.  I have just realized that a fence wire is also needed in order to protect our pipes from being vandalized and our plants from being damaged by cows, goats and chickens.
