We work in Sub-Saharan Africa where more than half of the world’s out of school children and youth are living. The region has one of the lowest rates of Secondary Education enrolment globally and a rapidly rising population. Let’s Build investment in public Secondary School classrooms provides opportunities for a high impact in the Region.

In Malawi, Let’s Build was fully incorporated on 13th July 2021 under the Companies Act as a Company Limited by Guarantee, non-profit purpose. It is also registered as an International NGO with Council for Non-governmental Organization (CONGOMA) and NGO Regulatory Authority (NGORA).

We cooperate with government to improve public Secondary Education infrastructure by constructing double classroom blocks and pit-latrines through local contractors and communities.
