    Om programmet

    We support two disability centers, Pundu and Mpamba, both of which are located outside of Nkhata Bay in rural villages. They offer educational opportunities and support and promote self-advocacy, enabling access to quality education, skilling sharing, and income generation. Vocational skills are taught to those that likely have not had the opportunity to attend school, creating a means of living and a sense of greater purpose and belonging in their community. Both centers support people with all types of physical and mental disabilities.

    Each has a committee which we work side by side with, to facilitate our workshops. 

    Both centers provide a hub for regular meetings, access to information, microfinance support groups, and a place where medical professionals can see multiple patients at one time, to offer advice and support to members and their families.

    We also encourage and engage with the wider community, to raise awareness of the rights and needs of persons with disabilities and encourage social inclusion.

    Our mission "To empower and provide disabled people with skills and opportunities to achieve their full potential as individuals, promote social inclusion and improve quality of life."

    Typisk dag

    This depends on the program which volunteers wish to run while volunteering. Volunteers with relevant and useful skills can arrange and run workshops in these centers, and in the wider community for health care advice. Along side Butterfly's support team, we also have dedicated local volunteers who are always more than happy to help our community outreach programs and offer support and advice, and find the people who really need to be reached.

    Transport on a local shared taxi or motorbike is necessary for these locations. Unfortunately we don't have the means to cover costs but we can help you to organise the transportation to the villages you may need to reach.
