Project Malonda, meaning “Project Trade” in Chichewa (the indigenous language of Malawi, Africa), is a trade school project designed for lower class women in impoverished countries. These trade schools will teach skills in tailoring and supply graduating students with the necessary skills they will need to become independent businesswomen. The schools are six months in length, and only the lowest women on the socioeconomic ladder of the host country are enrolled. Project Malonda now sponsors the first of these schools in Malawi, Africa, the “Reap What You Sew School for Women,” where 85 % of the graduates are running their own successful businesses, with current requests for similar schools in Mozambique, South Africa, Zimbabwe, India, and the Philippines. It is the goal of Project Malonda to be the catalyst that brings not only these women and their families out from under the terrible grip of poverty, but also entire nations. We believe that by educating these women and empowering them as independent businesswomen, change will come to these countries One Woman, One Business at a Time.
