Help Raise $35,000 :: Help Build a School in Malawi! 

Casey Fictum and other campus coordinators from DePaul University have created a fundraising campaign called the Kids of Malawi Project (KOMP) and partnered directly with campus coordinators at the Atlantic College in Wales, as well as the entire EOAF network.  DoSomething.org is also helping to promote this project!

Malawi Map

The Kids of Malawi Project (KOMP), in partnership with Build-On, is sponsoring the construction of a new schoolhouse for a remote village in Malawi.  Every donation adds more pieces to the puzzles.  Each puzzle represents a portion of the school needed to finish construction.  For example, one puzzle represents the BRICKS, another the BOARDS, etc.

Every puzzle piece will feature the signature of a donor, and once a puzzle is complete it will be on display to celebrate reaching one of the goals.  Once all of the puzzles are pieced together, we will have reached our OVERALL goal – to build a school for the children of Malawi. 

The school will provide more than 300 children with a stable location to be educated and discover their learning potential.  Members of KOMP will travel to Africa to assist with the building project and to interact with the school’s community.
