A local non-governmental organization, Youth Impact, has donated meals worth K760,000 to 230 patients admitted to Machinga District Hospital.
Youth Impact Organization, Executive Director Belinda Somanje Chimombo said the donation was made possible through support from two Malawians living in the United States of America.
She said the initiative was aimed at easing the hospital's food challenges and appealed to more individuals and organizations to support patients with food and other essential needs.
A nurse at Machinga District Hospital, Elitina Sankhulani, welcomed the donation, saying adequate nutrition is vital for patients' recovery. She said the support will complement medical treatment and help improve patients' health outcomes.
One of the beneficiaries Saidi Amin thanked Youth Impact Organization and the donors, saying the meals have eased the burden of hunger.
