We are happy to announce the re-launch of RaisingMalawi.org.

Three years ago Raising Malawi was founded to bring an end to the extreme poverty and hardship endured by Malawi's 2,000,000 orphans and vulnerable children once and for all.

We’ve launched this site to raise awareness of the dire conditions in Malawi, rally people behind the cause, and to let you know how you can be part of the solution.

At RaisingMalawi.org, you can learn why we must help Malawians, find ways to volunteer at home and abroad, and get your friends involved. You can also check out the Raising Malawi store and purchase goods that will benefit the children of Malawi.

To encourage your support and donations Madonna has issued a challenge and for every dollar you donate she will match it one to one, dollar for dollar. Every bit will help make a difference.

We know the challenges Malawians face are hard to imagine, but we believe that a different reality is possible. If we work together, our effort can do more than just change Malawi—it can foster change for vulnerable populations throughout Africa.

We can’t continue to turn our backs on those in greatest need. This is our chance to lend support. The time has come to raise Malawi.

How do you plan to help?
