Malawi Learning On Dirt
Can you imagine what your life would be like if you didn't have a table or chair in school? Now actually think about it, it sounds like a silly question, I know, but really. What would happen if you had to sit on a dirt floor with your paper in your lap for seven hours? That is the condition for every school in Malawi. You had a cement floor if you were lucky. I've never found cement lucky before. In fact, an average classroom is about 90 students, and their rooms are only the same size as ours. Having even a chair would be a dream, too much to ask for most students. Desks and chairs would do wonders for these Malawi schools. To conclude, I'm asking you, do you want to help?

of course I want to help these poor kids. It's so sad that they don't even have a simple chair to sit on. I read this article about Chipoka, a school in Salima, Malawi. At this school there are 700 students ages six to nineteen. The school has only six old desks, no electricity, and eleven teachers(not including the headmaster).To make things even worse if they need to use electricity they have to ride a bike in to town to use the internet at cafe. I can't imagine that. Can you?
