Malawi EHC was registered as a charity in 1973 and is a national organization with its own national staff of 15 men and women and a 6 member Board of Directors. Every Home for Christ has been partnering with Malawi EHC since 2004 after funds were raised to help with food after a devastating famine. In partnership with the Australian government aid department this was followed up with the implementation of a food security program. Since then, working in 3-5 year cycles in areas most in need, EHC Malawi, with funding from Australia and New Zealand, has implemented and managed a community development program which emphasizes food security and income generation.

The main components are –

• conservation agriculture, crops and livestock diversification, seed multiplication and climate change interventions
• income generation activities, capacity building training and financial management
• nutrition education, dietary diversification, distribution of mosquito nets and construction of Community Based Care Centers for orphans under 5 years of age
• a water and sanitation program emphasizing sanitation education, construction and rehabilitation of shallow wells and construction of toilets

A similar program has been introduced to Zambia and, as a result, the lives of men, women and children have changed for the better with less sickness and disease, better crops, more income, more nutritious meals and healthier and more productive lifestyles.

Thank you for the part you have played in making this possible.
