Give the Gift of Change: Support Education in Malawi with Gift Cards
When you give a Cycle of Good charity gift card, you’re not only showing someone you care, but you’re also transforming lives in Malawi, Africa. Cycle of Good, alongside the Krizevac Project, channels the power of gift-giving into funding essential educational resources, facilities, and community development projects in some of the most underserved areas in Malawi. By choosing to give something as impactful as a sewing machine, a bicycle, solar lights, or even a year’s worth of meals for a child, you are supporting entire communities, helping children and families grow, thrive, and break the cycle of poverty.
Here’s how each gift option works and the real impact it makes:
1. Send a Pencil Case - £5
Imagine trying to learn without the basics like pencils and erasers. Your gift of a pencil case supplies a child with the essential tools for school. This small but mighty gift provides students with notebooks, pencils, erasers, and other materials they need to succeed. In a place where access to even basic supplies is a luxury, this gift sends a powerful message: education matters.
2. Give a Bike - £50
Many children in Malawi have to walk miles to get to school. With a bicycle, you can change that. Bicycles are a lifeline for students, especially those in rural communities, where schools are often far from home. When you give the gift of a bike, you’re providing safe, reliable transportation that gives students more time for studying and increases attendance rates. It’s a simple yet life-changing resource for children who are committed to their education.
3. Provide a Sewing Machine - £20
Cycle of Good has a fantastic vision: to create jobs and help individuals build skills. The gift of a sewing machine goes directly to support tailoring projects and skills training initiatives, allowing young people and adults to learn valuable trade skills. This leads to economic independence, job creation, and the ability to support families. When you give a sewing machine, you’re empowering individuals and communities with tools for long-term growth.
4. Feed a Child for a Year - £15
In Malawi, many children attend school on an empty stomach, which makes it hard for them to focus and learn. By giving the gift of a year’s worth of nutritious meals, you are making it possible for a child to come to school ready to learn and grow. Consistent meals can improve health, boost school attendance, and lead to better academic performance. It’s a powerful way to make sure that no child has to choose between hunger and education.
5. Light Up a Rural Home with Solar Lights - £100
Electricity is scarce in Malawi, especially in rural areas. By giving the gift of solar lights, you’re bringing safe, renewable energy to a family’s home. This gift allows children to study in the evening and families to reduce their dependence on costly, harmful fuels like kerosene. Solar lights mean a brighter future, literally and figuratively, for students and their families.
6. Provide Sanitary Products for a Secondary School Girl - £10
Many girls in Malawi miss school during their menstrual cycle due to a lack of access to sanitary products. This causes them to fall behind and, in some cases, even drop out. Your gift of sanitary products provides dignity and uninterrupted education for a girl. With these essentials covered, she can focus on her studies, gain confidence, and continue her path to a brighter future.
