Madzi Alipo is part of a national Malawian NGO - Fisherman’s Rest Community Projects.

The Madzi Alipo water programme started in 2012.

We currently operate district-wide in Blantyre Rural, with interventions at a national level across Malawi when called on. 

​

Madzi Alipo started as a rapid repair program for broken water points in rural Malawi. This was followed by workshops, equipping communities to maintain and service water points, improving water security and rural health and well being. 

 

Over the past 13 years it’s grown in services and reputation, with a proven model for increased water point functionality. This is supported through an innovative online management system (MAMS app and database), which enables agencies and local communities to update, manage and report on water points— significantly improving water security for some of the world's poorest communities.

​

With your strategic partnership, we are ready to take the Madzi Alipo program Malawi-wide, and into the rest of Africa.

At first, the only place where we could purchase borehole parts was in Limbe, which is very far away. We had to spend more funds to access a part that was cheaper than the transport costs. When Madzialipo began, the water point kept running because we have always managed to maintain it by buying parts closer at Madzi Alipo. Madzi Alipo has only been called when the repairs are major, which is less common. As a community member, the most improvement I have observed is that my kids now attend classes on time, without delays, because water is readily available, thanks to the all-time functional borehole. All thanks to Madzi Alipo for their timely and affordable support.
