The Lifeline Fund is working tirelessly to ensure that the many orphaned children they care and provide for grow up healthy and strong, with the most optimistic future possible.
Despite the many daycare centres, educational facilities, new boreholes and farms the Lifeline Fund has built in Malawi, however, they still can’t control the weather. This year’s harvest has been reported as patchy at best and as a total catastrophe at worst. Some of the Fund’s centres have reported a reasonable crop, although not as good as in previous years. Sadly, some harvests have failed to yield anything at all.
Urgent action
All of this means that the Malawian people may need extra help to ensure there is enough food to support the country’s population. Urgent action is needed, especially as winter is on the way in Malawi.
The Lifeline Fund estimates that they will need to buy at least 250 extra tonnes of maize to last their centres until next April. This will be done in the next few months, as soon as much-needed funds come through.
At this point, the Lifeline Fund is extending their gratitude to CoolerAid Ltd, who have supplied the charity with over £36,000 this year. All involved are hoping that this money will be enough to keep food coming into the Lifeline Fund’s Malawi centres.
