flag Malawi distributes food aid to drought-hit families, delivering 1,000 maize bags to Zomba as part of a K300 million effort supporting 11 districts.

flag Malawi is distributing food aid to thousands affected by drought, with 1,000 bags of maize delivered to Zomba by the National Bank of Malawi as part of a K300 million corporate commitment. flag The aid supports the government’s national response to food insecurity in 11 districts, where about 8,145 families are impacted, and is part of a larger effort funded by the World Bank to assist all 28 districts. flag Despite challenges like rains and poor roads, the program is reaching vulnerable households with maize or cash, though funding remains short of the K209 billion needed. flag Officials stress that selling relief maize is illegal, and no hunger-related deaths have been reported, crediting the response for preventing worse outcomes.
