Malawian girls and boys love sport. The Boys go crazy about football and are seen playing all over the city at all hours of the day. Whilst there are many girls that play football the main sport is netball and the Malawian girls are absolutely brilliant at it. So much so that they have won international acclaim for the standard of netball. Footballs and netballs offer children the chance to play, develop their skills and work as a team. Feed Malawi’s passion by donating a football and a netball here!
The fields in Malawi are rugged. Poor quality footballs and netballs do not last long. We ensure that your money is spent on a good quality balls so that they will endure the tricky terrain. This also means that your football is likely to last a long time. A typical lifespan for a football is about 1 year so be sure to come back and donate another then!

Unusual Auction Raises Money For BFIM Library Project
Monday 16th August 2010
The recent Building Futures in Malawi Blues and Rock Garden Party went down a storm. Not only did a larger than ever crowd revel in the unique atmosphere that was electrified by some of the best musical talent in Colchester, the charity gift auction was an unusual turn of events. As regular guests of the BFIM music event will know, each year a cake is auctioned off to raise money to improve the lives of children in Malawi, but this year there was a surprise in store for the guests. An employee of sponsors High Position, an Essex based search engine optimisation company, offered themselves up for bidding in return for a night out on the tiles. In good spirit Kerry McCarthy was won by colleague Tobias Bowman and the pair spent an evening drinking fine wine and eating good food, followed by some dancing at a local nightclub. In total the event raised a stunning £5,900 which will go towards the latest project, building a community sports school which includes a secondary school, sports fields, community centre and library amongst many other things.
