As a part of our Venture Trip Program, donated clothing is transported to Malawi and distributed to all age groups, from infants through adults. A clothing distribution is a joyful event that typically occurs prior to a community-wide Bible Camp or Feast Day. In addition to clothing donations, we also purchase new items, such as cloth diapers and underwear, which are given to each group in a more private setting.
Assistance such as medical care, food, and temporary shelter, is provided on an as needed basis to individuals affected by such things as a medical emergency or natural disasters.
This program serves the most vulnerable people living within Kasupe's influence area providing beneficiary families with 1 bag of maize each month during the 5-month growing season (October through February, when maize prices are high due to scarcity), in exchange for brickmaking and road work 1 day per week. Through this program beneficiary families avoid starvation, while needed repairs are made to dirt roads washed out during the rainy season, and bricks are supplied for continued construction projects at Kasupe Secondary School.
