We were told by members of SI Blantyre back in November at Conference that they were trying to get a second Soroptimist club started in Lilongwe, the capital of Malawi. Now Pricilla Matinga from SI Blantyre has sent us the exciting news that this club has been started.
Pricilla has also sent a photo of SI Blantyre’s hand over of more uniforms to girls at a school they support.
She tells us that selected students from this rural state school were invited to a quiz competition with the students from the private school owned by Judith Chirwa (President of SI Blantyre last year), together with students from a school for City residents. Pricilla says that this was to expose the sponsored students to ‘other life styles’.
