In your workplace

Raising funds at work can bring people together for a good cause and enhance your skills too, including project management and negotiation.

You can inspire people to support education and child welfare in what was the world’s poorest country, which speaks for itself. By helping children in their early years they can develop into capable, productive Malawian citizens.

Here are some successful workplace fundraisers:

• Bake a cake – excellent home baking at your workplace in exchange for a donation for children in Malawi, what’s not to love!
• Corporate challenge -   Always wanted to run a marathon, but not sure you could complete the distance alone? Or fancy running with team members? A team relay such as the Yorkshire Marathon Relay could be the answer. 
• Company quiz - Your company may be able to match fundraising to make the funds go even further. 

Working together

We have welcomed many organisations in Malawi to see the impact of their support first hand, meet our colleagues and the families we support. Johnson & Johnson group of companies and employees from SMBC Aviation Capital have been regular visitors.

Local fundraising

Funding from corporate partnerships has allowed us to extend care into new communities, and plan for the future, so we can reach more children in Malawi.

Companies with a strong social ethos have partnered with Open Arms and the results are impressive. Whether large or small, we will be happy to work with you to identify projects that will meet our shared goals.

Companies can contribute funding, volunteer expertise, and even send a group to Malawi to see the positive impact first hand.
