The Malawi School Project is a result of the Power of Intention and the willingness to follow the Pathway of Possibility. This journey is a very simple example that We Are All One, and that conscious “Spiritually Motivated Social Action” can empower lives to an awakening to the greatness within each individual. This is more than evident in the smile of each person, in the reflection of the Spirit we share through our hearts and eyes, and in the innate desire to better our lives.
UPDATE
At present we have 14 schools fully up and running since the first school was built in the spring of 2007. We have secured funding for the 15th and 16th schools, and look to build these along with the 18th when there in the summer of 2011. MSP (Malawi School Project) has provided a safe school structure for over 6200 children/youth, as well as over 1200 adults. We are committed to building a minimum of 20 schools in the Kasungu District.

Journey 2009
In June and July of 2009, 16 of us traveled back to the Kasungu District to break ground on two more schools. We also visited several of our previous sites and had the distinct pleasure and honor to witness these schools up and running. Additionally, we broke ground on the first ever for MSP – a second school block in the Vyeyo village where one of our first schools was opened. We spent three nights with host familiesin the village and had an incredible time sharing hand to hand, heart to heart with the beautiful villagers and their families.
Journey 2008
In June of 2008, 28 individuals, as young as 12 years old, and adults made a follow up journey to the Kasungu District of Malawi to begin the building of 3 more schools and to view the impact of the schools they had built the year before. The 2008 journey exemplified once again that We Are One, and was experienced by all in a multitude of ways daily.

It’s not only our youth helping to building schools, it’s about engaging the community in an ongoing Community Education Program (CEP). Read More> |
