Imagine Walking Miles

Imagine needing to go to the hospital and having to walk 20 miles, ride the back of a bicycle, or if you can do neither of these how would you feel about laying in the back on an ox cart? This is what the people southeast of the Lintipi Trading Center have to do. They have no health-care facility around their villages, and the nearest district hospital is 20 miles south of them. To be sick, even with a minor illness, can be life threatening.

This is why the Malawi Project has set out to help the Dzidalire Community Development Agency, one of the non-profit groups in Malawi, to build a hospital near this poor area of the nation.

In the past couple of weeks the first $2,000.00 has been donated to this project. The village people in the area have already carved a road over the mountain so those on the other side can reach it. They should not have to wait too long. It's a long trip by ox-cart to the nearest hospital.
