Help Travelzoo Build an IT Classroom for Open Arms Malawi · 28 April 2014

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

At Travelzoo, we love to travel – but our employees know that traveling isn’t just about taking selfies in front of landmarks. It’s also a chance to give back.

This spring, a team of 11 staff members from the U.S. and UK offices will use their vacation time to travel to Blantyre, Malawi, and volunteer with our global charity Open Arms Malawi.

We’ll spend a week at the Open Arms Infant Home, a home for orphaned, neglected and terminally ill children. In addition to working with the children, our team will be building a much anticipated technology classroom with updated computer equipment, improved internet access, educational software, apps, a whiteboard and a projector. Our aim is to help Open Arms create an environment where children can learn vital technology skills to empower them through an exciting new learning environment. Our physical labor and monetary contributions will make Open Arms’ dream a reality. Thank you for helping us reach our goal for the orphans of Malawi.

If you are donating in support of one of Travelzoo's volunteers traveling to Malawi, please reference their name in the 'Leave a message' section when donating.
