2020 Project Summary

A grant of £1000 to support the purchase of building materials to help the construction of a visitor shelter at the Kachindamoto Health Centre.

Abraham Kathako, working with Kachindamoto Community Development Organisation wrote to us to say, ‘on behalf of Traditional Authority Kachindamoto and the Kachindamoto Community in Dedza district, we would like to thank FOMA for the financial support for the construction of a guardian shelter. This shelter has been very important and has helped us in many ways especially children, the elderly and women to be able to access health services in a decent and protected manner especially during windy, rainy or very sunny seasons’.

The community worked together to provide bricks, sand and unskilled labour towards the construction of the shelter as well as contributing donations towards paying for transport for the construction materials to be delivered.
