Open Arms Malawi is dedicated to saving and improving the lives of orphaned and vulnerable children in Malawi, so they can achieve their potential within the love and security of a home. We work closely with families and communities to raise healthy children and support them into self-sufficiency.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page, we hope that this means you will be sharing our big day with us.  As we mentioned in our invitation your presence at our wedding is the most important thing to us.  We do not have a wedding list but ask, if you wish to give something then we would gratefully accept a donation to our chosen charity - Open Arms Malawi.

Open Arms gives Malawi's orphans a second chance through providing shelter, food, care, love, expert medical care and education.  They receive no regular funding and are entirely dependent on the generosity of donors.

We chose this charity because it was recommended to us by a close friend who works for Oxfam out in Africa. She and her husband volunteered here and their family friend actually runs the orphanage out in Malawi.  

Additionally any money donated will go directly to the children under care (no donations lost on hidden admin fees, charges etc) we could therefore really make a difference!

We are hoping to volunteer at Open Arms in early 2011 and so will be able to see first hand what a difference your generosity made.  We too will recieve regular news letters and are more than happy to forward these on to anyone who is interested.

So please dig deep and donate any amount will help, there is an online 'wish list' link below;
