Being an orphan and homeless for over 12 years was a challenging experience for me. As a homeless person living on the streets of Lilongwe, Malawi, I remember sleeping under the bridge. I was hopeless until I was given a place at the orphanage. That is where I received my first bed, new bedding, clean water, food, and an education. For me, it was like heaven on earth. Since I was a young child growing up at the orphanage, I was aware that my only parent was God through those who were supporting me. As of today, I provide shelter to more than 27 homeless and orphaned children in Malawi. Currently, we are running one of the most effective ministries in Malawi, and God is doing amazing things. My goal has always been to have a home where many children will feel at home, and we started by renting a home where 14 girls live comfortably and can receive an education
Fears and challenges I face.
It is going well now, but my greatest fear has always been the possibility of becoming homeless again and having a group of children. Whenever I am at peace, the only trauma is the possibility of being evicted. We recently had a rent increase when I should have expected it every year and in the long run, it will be difficult to live with children in these homes.In addition, due to a lack of space in our orphanages, I am limited in the number of children I can help. Therefore, there are many children in need of assistance.
The construction of an orphanage for girls
It has been my prayer to find a solution to this issue, and the solution is to build our own girl’s orphanage on our land. According to my research, the only proper way to begin building is to build in phases. There is a plan to build a Six-bedroom home that can accommodate 25 children at a time. The fact that what I have been desiring in life has come true will give more hope to many homeless children and orphans. You know what friend; this will also give me peace of mind to know that what I have desired in life has come true. I pray that resources will be provided to construct a home for the children.
Here is what I have now.
There are about 12 acres of land ready for construction, about 100,000 bricks that will suffice to build the home, and a borehole that will provide water throughout the project.
The cost of the building is $45,000.
Hi friend, would you be willing to help me raise money to build an orphanage for girls? Alternatively, could you support us by contributing the entire amount needed for the project? Once the facility is completed, you will be able to name it. Additionally, everyone who supported this project will have their names printed on the orphanage's walls. This will serve as a reminder of your generosity towards the home. Let's work together and make this dream come true for many children.
Thanks, and blessings to you.
