Mvera
One of our biggest visionaries, Ezra Chikakuda, lives and leads the kids in this location. As matter of fact, Ezra is the reason why we first moved to and later fell in love with the people of this location.
The Mvera Center is close to one of Malawi’s old Presbyterian Mission Centers which makes it one of our most strategically located centers as far as making a difference is concerned. After all, the mission was established for that very reason.
Location: Mvera is located about 35 minutes east of the capital Lilongwe, just a few minutes away one of the world’s most beautiful lakes, Lake Malawi.
Children’s Centers Program Rationale:
In Malawi the vast majority of the population lives scattered in many rural villages, while about 15% live in cities. The latter are privileged to have access to quality education, jobs, electricity, telephones, food, and transportation. Not only do most villagers lack these advantages, they also struggle to meet their daily needs in regard to food and water. Needless to say, the cycle of poverty in these villages has repeated itself for generations.
Our Vision:
Our children centers provide opportunities for urban youth to invest in the lives of village children by providing them with training and resources that they would otherwise not be able to have.
Operating Objectives:
Academic development, health and hygiene, sports and recreation, and spiritual development.
