Madonna Breaks Ground In Malawi for Girls Academy
/
As promised, Madonna broke ground on her Raising Malawi Academy for Girls today. Accompanied by her four children, Madonna also cut a cake and planted a tree in the company of Malawi’s minister of education, George Chiponda, who said:
“When you have money I want you to come back and build us a university,” said Chiponda.
Malawi is one of the world’s poorest nations, with more than half of the population of 12 million living us less than one dollar day.
Construction of Madonna’s academy will take two years. A
