Development Projects in Malawi
 School
& Community Center Give New Hope to Impoverished
African Village
New
projects help neighbouring villages help themselves
 Two
years ago, Slotland.com told their thousands of regular
community members that they'd committed to funding an
essential development project in Malawi, Africa. A small
group of dedicated aid workers asked them for help and
they couldn't say no. The overwhelming support of the
Slotland.com online community has inspired Slotland.com
to continue funding the project and to expand the scope.
 The
first project - a rural community pre-school called
Umodzi-Mbame, in the village of Juma, is caring for
80 children aged 4-6 years and teaching them to read
and write. It has gradually grown into a training centre
for teachers of similar schools in the area. Neighbouring
villages, seeing the positive development the project
has brought thanks to the Slotland´s funding, are now
asking for similar assistance.
 Our
first project changed the lives of an entire village.

about the Umodzi—Mbame school.The
project, in which every member of the impoverished village
became involved, has had such a positive impact on the
entire community — and given so much hope to their children
— that neighbouring villages are yearning for similar
assistance.

Message
from the
Project Team
Malawi
is one of the poorest countries in the world and we
believe that education is the key to giving her children
hope.
With
full funding from Slotland.com, we have spent the last
two years building a school and training teachers and
volunteers here in Juma, Malawi. The community has helped
build our school and volunteers help operate it and
care for the gardens which feed the children.
While
Slotland continues to fund our work, we would like to
extend our aid to neighbouring villages that have begun
community projects and need help to complete them.
When you read about our successful Umodzi-Mbame School,
and hear about the maize mill built in Kantimbanya,
we hope you'll want to help with our further projects
such as construction of a new pre-school building in
a place where lessons have so far been conducted under
a mango tree, or a bore-hole installation in an area
where drinking water has been an onging problem.
There
are no adminstrative costs for this project -- every
penny donated goes directly to the project.
Even
a small donation goes a long way in Malawi.

Online Gambling Insider Industry Challenge
In February, boNGO received a generous donation from
leading online gambling portal, Online-Gambling-Insider.com.
The editor challenged
others in the internet casino business to also share
their good fortunes. We
are grateful to sites like
CasinoRanking.com
that
have responded to the challenge by making substantial
donations to boNGO
as well.
