The Killearn Malawi Group is a small fundraising charity which aims to promote education and health in Malawi. Our fundraising is on-going through jumble sales, events and donations. Our projects are many and varied. We have funded the building of the Jamieson House which is accommodation in Mzuzu to be used by visiting volunteers, and the women's craft centre at Hilltop where women come to learn knitting and other craft skills, as well as computing, to enable them to support themselves and their families. Currently we are funding the repair of wells, the buying of bullocks, the construction of a new bridge and the addition of a store room and toilets at the Hilltop Nursery School. Most of these activities take place in the North of Malawi and through our main contacts there, the Reverend Levi Nyondo and his wife Ruth. We also collaborate with the Raven Trust. However this year we have also managed to fund the digging of a borehole in the very south of Malawi in Muyang'anira, near Nsanje. One of our committee members has worked there and is in regular contact with families who live there. The importance of access to clean water cannot be underestimated. It helps to reduce disease. The burden of collecting water often falls on the shoulders of young girls who consequently cannot attend school. This area is one of the poorest in Malawi and has recently suffered devastating floods.
