Key takeaways

  • Hope4Malawi describes its work as education and development in rural Blantyre, Southern Malawi, so a project that improves schools, libraries, literacy, vocational training or healthy living there is the kind of work it describes.
  • Its grants are for Malawian organisations aligned with its strategy, so an organisation outside Malawi is not eligible under the terms it states.
  • Its annual report gives no published application process and no grant range, so get in touch through the contact shown before preparing a request, and ask what size of grant is realistic.
  • Individuals should not seek sponsorship through its website, because it does not accept sponsorship applications there and its university sponsorships go only to its own sponsored secondary students who live in the villages where it works.
