Katie and Gift currently go to a school very close to their homes. Therefore, transport costs are no longer needed for them. Their school fees for the current year is 345.000MK and their monthly pocket money adds to 120.000 MK each.
Ramos has started his business already. Officially Marajowi is not supporting him any longer. Thanks for his cooperation with the school Stepping Stones International, most of the months he manages to make enough money to pay the rent and live. On special occasions (i.e. for his birthday and at Christmas) and on exceptional circumstances we do send him something for support.
Also Witness is by now completely independent. We hear less frequently from him, but we know he is putting into good practice the electrician skills he acquired at school and working at a local lodge. Also in this case, we plan to send him something only at his birthday or at Christmas.
Last year, Joyce successfully completed a basic beauty course and opened her beauty shop in Nkhata Bay. In Sept 2024 she has started an advanced beauty course in Mzuzu and she will be attending it for at least 3 months. Marajowi is currently sponsoring this course (70.000 MK per month), plus helping her paying the rent for the room she in (30.000 MK per month) and the food she needs to survive (120.000 MK/month).
We obviously continue to support Bandawe and especially Malita. We cover he school fees (130 EUR per trimester) and her needs. We really would like to support the school further with food supplies or arranging vocational skills activities (e.g. carpentry, painting, sewing). We are contacting some local associations for that, but we will need funds. So please think of us.
Grace has by now completely taken over the role of Clement. We pay their youngest daughter’s Stella‘s school fees (175.000 MK for the school fee + 140.000 MK for the transport and 132.000Mk for the school food per trimester) and we give her an allowance (50 EUR per month), which actually correspond to pocket money for Stella.
At the end of 2023, we have started sponsoring Hannah as well. We pay her school fees (45.000 MK), the transport to school (36.000 MK) and the school food (24.000 MK). On top of this we give her family 60.000 MK per month to buy her snacks and stationery for school
