When the Harvest Runs Low

In Malawi, Njala means “hunger”—the difficult season when families’ food supplies run low before the next harvest. MCV helps vulnerable children and their caregivers through immediate food support while investing in irrigation and sustainable farming for a more food-secure future. Together, we can bring nourishment and hope during the hardest months. Learn more or donate on our website: malawichildrensvillage.org

Small Net. Life-Saving Impact.

During peak mosquito seasons, MCV distributes insecticide-treated bed nets to vulnerable children and their households. Through distribution, education, and follow-up, the bed nets can reduce monthly malaria cases among participating children. Learn how a simple net is saving lives.

Small tools can make a life-changing difference. Thank you for helping us protect Malawi’s children. 💙

Our mission is to enhance the lives of orphans by providing health, social and educational resources in 39 villages along the southwest shore of Lake Malawi.

🐐 Cute goats with a powerful purpose!

Through MCV’s Goat Pass-On Project, families receive goats to help build food security and a more reliable source of income. As the goats reproduce, offspring are passed on to other families—allowing one gift to keep growing throughout the community.

Small goats. Big impact. 💚
