I dropped out of school some years ago when I got pregnant. I was feeling shy going
back to school but today after your encouraging message I have realized that I can
do this no matter what people will say. Now I will use family planning methods so
that I finish my education without any hitch again.

For young mothers like Maria Sichali from Cosam Village in the area of Traditional
Authority Mwirang'ombe in Karonga District, accessing Family Planning methods (FPM)
can be a frustrating experience.
Sichali recalls a recent visit to her nearest health facility, Mlare, where she was
sent back home because the FPM she needed was out of stock.
"I walked on my feet, all hopes on accessing FPM I needed, only to be sent back home
because what I needed was not available, thereby returning home without the needed
help," she narrates.
Unfortunately, the lack of medical supplies in the health facilities in Karonga often
means that mothers and adolescents do not receive basic SRHR (Sexual and Reproductive
Health and Rights) care and support.
On National Mother's Day in October, our partner organisation Pamoza Tingakwaniska
therefore once again handed over medical supplies worth over 2,5 million Kwacha (approx.
1,300 euros) to the following four health centres as part of the Fiska Ulato project
financed by us: Nyungwe, Mlare, Iponga and Kayelekela.
Principal Group Village Head Mweninyumba - TA Kyung :
This is a very wonderful project, the impact that we have began to see is so encouraging
in our communities and we believe that such sexual reproductive health project will
help us achieve the 2063 sustainable development goals (SDGs). As traditional leaders,
we will provide all the necessary support that we can manage so that together we
empower the youth so that they can be self-reliant in our communities.
We want to continue our SRHR activities in a goal-orientated manner in the future.
Thus, we are also dependent on your help and donations.
Please continue to support us, our projects and the people of Malawi with your donations.
Every donation helps.
