Encore for Humanity exists to break the cycle of hunger and limited education that too often keeps Malawi children out of the classroom.

In communities across rural Malawi, chronic food insecurity, long drought seasons, and the cost of schooling force families into impossible choices, often cutting a child’s education short. Encore for Humanity exists to break the cycle of hunger and limited education that too often keeps children out of the classroom. With the support of our donors, we are working to create an encore of possibility — another chance, another opportunity, and a new stage for children to learn, grow, and thrive.

Give today and help build a future defined by hope, not hunger.

​Encore for Humanity partners with community leaders in Malawi to address the core barriers that keep children from staying in school: hunger, resource shortages, and the financial gap between primary and secondary education. Our work focuses on practical, high-impact support: daily meals that help students stay focused, classrooms equipped with the basics to learn safely, and scholarships that ensure determined learners, especially girls, can continue their education.

Your donation also strengthens women’s leadership. Our Food Mamas — single mothers who, before this program, had no reliable employment options— prepare hundreds of meals each day, creating stability for their own families while sustaining the wider community.

Be part of an encore that lasts for generations — please consider making a donation today.

Join Us in Creating an Encore of Possibility

Encore for Humanity is a U.S.–based 501(c)(3) nonprofit working in partnership with local communities in Malawi to remove the barriers that keep children out of school. Every contribution supports community-led programs that nourish learning, expand access to education, and strengthen families for the long term.

When you give, you’re not just meeting an urgent need — you’re helping build opportunity that lasts.
