Fifth Week of Lent
(School week beginning 28th March)
Tawonga is a 10-year-old girl, living with a disability. She lives in a village in northern Malawi in a region plagued by food insecurity and poverty. For most of her life, her parents have struggled to provide food for the family.
Since participating in a Caritas Australia supported program, Tawonga’s life has transformed. Her family now grows enough food to provide three meals a day, ending the struggle of malnutrition, and helping her thrive at school.
With your help, this transformational program can continue to empower vulnerable women, men and children, and strengthen the communities around them. Watch a short film about Tawonga’s story.
