A project group led by high school student volunteers, represented by Renka Tsukuda and Nao Sasaki, will launch a crowdfunding campaign on May 13, 2026, to deliver school meals and safe water to children at Chisomo CBCC, a childcare facility in the Republic of Malawi, Africa. The project is being carried out in collaboration with Seibo Japan, a nonprofit organization that supports school meal programs in Malawi. Chisomo CBCC, a Community-Based Childcare Center located in a mountainous area of Blantyre, Malawi, is a preschool education hub operated by local residents. However, the area is surrounded by deep forest and remains isolated, making it difficult for government and external support to reach. The most serious issue is water scarcity. Children and women must spend hours each day walking long distances to fetch water, losing opportunities for education. Unsafe water also causes infectious diseases and threatens children’s lives. The high school student members have been exploring what they can do for children around the world while continuing their everyday school lives. They have previously supported Malawi through activities such as selling fair-trade Malawi coffee. Wanting to create a more direct system to change children’s futures, they decided to launch this crowdfunding campaign. The project will provide support in two phases. First, it will deliver warm school meals every day to children facing chronic malnutrition and stunting. Second, it aims to secure safe water by building a well on the school grounds, providing clean water essential for meal preparation and hygiene management. Expected outcomes include improved nutrition, helping address stunting among children under five, which affects about 37% of this age group; expanded educational opportunities, as school meals can motivate attendance and help prevent child labor; and reduced burdens on women and children by freeing them from water-fetching duties and creating time for study and work.
