Accommodation

Visiting orphanages
Pack for a Purpose does not condone visiting orphanages, as this can often lead to negative impacts on children. The accommodation or tour company working with the orphanage will deliver the supplies in a coordinated and respectful way so that the children can benefit from them. Your generosity is not diminished because you do not interact with the children.

Project Description

The schools are near Liwonde National Park, south eastern Malawi. The schools work in partnership with Children in the Wilderness (A Wilderness outreach program for children in environmental education and leadership). The children from the schools mentioned here have Eco-Clubs where children learn about wildlife and conservation. They also get access to free educational entry into the Park and learn about wildlife and natural environment. The items below are the supplies which the Eco-Clubs and their teachers need to run the Eco-Clubs effectively.
