Presidential Charity Initiative Provides MK 225 Million for Reconstruction of Freddy-Damaged Mpatsa Primary School

Floods induced by Freddy, the longest lasting Tropical Cyclone; swept heaps of debris that landed and completely buried Mpatsa Primary School in Traditional Authority Tengani; Nsanje, rendering the school unusable; leaving pupils and surrounding communities hopeless.

DoDMA, in collaboration with Nsanje District Council and various humanitarian partners, pitched tents at a new and safer place to ensure that learning continues. With ruthless hot and windy conditions, pupils at the school have been learning under difficult circumstances that would shutter dreams of brighter days.

However, President Dr Lazarus Chakwera's Presidential Charity Initiative on Tuesday (13th August, 2024) aided the realization of the pupils’ dreams through the provision of K225 million for reconstruction of classroom and administration blocks.

Said the President: “the funds will aid the reconstruction of the primary school which is essential to the education and dreams of our young ones. In the aftermath of Cyclone Freddy, we witnessed the destruction of homes, schools and livelihoods. Together, we have the power to rebuild, not just structures but lives and communities. The reconstruction of the primary school is a symbol of our commitment to rise above adversity, to rebuild stronger and ensure that our children have a safe and conducive environment to learn and grow.”
