Mamie Martin Fund
@mamiemartin.org
A small Scottish charity which supports girls' education in North Malawi. Set up in 1993 and still doing what we do. Sadly the need is as great as ever. Thanks for your support.
A great loss to Malawi and Scotland - yesterday, this amazing man, Alan Laverock, passed away peacefully after a fall.
He will be greatly missed. We all remember him with gratitude.

Great #AGM today though we missed our core tech team member from @weespokehub.bsky.social

We have 27+ attendees on a Saturday - RESULT!
Thanks, hugely, to the tech team - a Zoom AGM takes a lot of work & prep - mostly unseen.

Yes, we get around. Team MMF bravely crossed the border into England, are in lovely Lancashire to meet the wonderful people who have supported 6 girls thru Sec School in Malawi. A second 4-year project is being launched - so another 6 girls will be educated through this group's generosity & love.

On International Literacy Day, we remember how vital #literacy is in the world. It's in #SDG4. It is the issue which inspired Mamie Martin back in the 1920s. New post on our website about the impact of our work in #Malawi
