December 2019
We have just donated 940 soap bars to Love Support Unite, which means that the 37 girls at the Tilinanu Orphanage in Malawi have all received soaps, allowing them to have a bar each per month for 2 years!
The additional soaps have been given to nursery schools, mother and infant courses, famine relief packages and adult literacy classes.
More about Love, Support Unite
Love, Support Unite Africa (LSU) is a volunteer foundation based in the UK. It was set up to help sustain Tilinanu Orphanage in Malawi, which houses and educates girls on a full-time basis, as well as feeding orphans in the community daily. They now help to empower people to become self-sufficient, with a leg-up rather than a hand-out. Community-based projects that integrate education, enterprise, nutrition and health, lift communities out of the cycle of poverty into a cycle of sustainability.
We’ve had a long-term relationship with Love, Support Unite which started in 2014! During this time we have been involved in various ways: we’ve donated some of our coconut oil for baby massage and it has also helped to prevent and treat ringworm in children, which causes infection and scarring; we’ve sponsored 5 children in the orphanage; we, along with several of our partners, have donated funds to build homes for teachers; and we’ve ran half marathons and scaled the Three Peaks to fundraise for a further home to be built.
