Unless you live in sub-Sahara Africa ... Unless you live in one of the poorest parts of the world ... Unless you have spent time in a Malawi Village ...
Yes, unless you have been there, are there, or spend a lot of time visiting there it will be impossible for you to comprehend what it is like to live in an African Village Hut in poverty like nothing else in the world. Words will describe it. Pictures will show it. Try as you might it will be hard to imagine there are people who suffer in silence in one of the poorest nations in the world.
In a mult-part series we have tried to describe in pictures and text the story of a grandmother who is caring for a number of grandchildren after the death of their parents. You will see the rooms of her house, the grain storage facility, and her orchard and garden.

We believe success will come to Africa when aid programs are founded on shared responsibility, common trust, and Africans taking the lead in their future. The Malawi Project is committed to helping develop self-reliance, self-determination, and avoiding the creation of a culture of dependency that is void of responsibility.

Malawi Project Assists MIBI
Malawi Project Assists MIBI in Mill Project
With substantial funding made available with contributions through the Malawi Project, a maize mill has been constructed in a remote area of Malawi north of Dedza.
The mill is part of a program that includes an international school, agricultural training center, and various other programs to help develop the Christian community in Malawi, and train men and women to be self supporting.
The site is being developed by MIBI, an outreach ministry of the Green Valley Church of Christ in Noblesville, Indiana.
