Building project in Malawi completed by Stonehouse Better World
Jun 19 2008 by Lesley Brown, Hamilton Advertiser
A BUILDING project in Malawi, which was funded by Stonehouse Better World, has been completed.
Thanks to SBW, a substantial brick home, with electricity and sanitation, has been constructed in Mulanje for a science teacher to live in while he teaches at a secondary school in the area.
The teacher, from Ireland, is expected to take up his post later this month.
The project was funded entirely by the community of Stonehouse through business contributions and several fund-raising events.
Stonehouse Better World hope the introduction of science into the curriculum will have a long-term and sustainable impact on the community and will encourage young people to train in medicine in the future.
