There is a role
here for you.
Choose yours.
Wandikweza is asking for partnership in building a health system that will reach three million people by 2030 and keep reaching them after the funding that built it has moved on.
There are six ways to be part of that. One of them belongs to you.
Every contribution
builds something specific
Every contribution builds a component of a health system that will operate after the funding ends: CHW networks, clinical protocols, motorbike fleets, supply chains and the government co-ownership structures that sustain all of them. You are not funding a visit. You are funding the infrastructure that makes every visit possible.
Run a campaign. Build a system.
Whether you organise a workplace fundraiser, a community event, a birthday campaign, or an online giving drive, you can help build a last-mile maternal and child health system that reaches smallholder farming families in rural Malawi continuously, at the household and before complications arise. Every contribution helps bring skilled care closer to the doorstep of a family the system has not yet reached.

Monthly incentive for one Community Health Worker: household visits, danger sign identification, birth preparedness planning, and postnatal follow-up for every enrolled family in her zone.

Medicines, lab reagents, clinical staff deployment, and the nutrition programme for pregnant women and children under five at one full Mobile Outreach Clinic session.

Sets up the Maternity Rapid Response System: communication protocol, first-responder training in one village cluster. 30-minute dispatch standard.
$1,400
Sponsors one full CHW zone for a year
Full operating cost of one CHW zone — incentive, supervision, supplies, household registration, and all six PDC layers for every enrolled family in that zone for twelve months.
Partner with us
Wandikweza partners with organisations, foundations, companies and individuals who share one conviction: that healthcare should reach families where they live before complications form. Together, we build last-mile health systems that are co-managed with government from Day 1, measured by a defined exit standard and designed to continue serving communities long after Wandikweza steps back.

Adopt a district
Adopting a district is Wandikweza's most substantive partnership, a commitment to funding the complete Proactive Doorstep Care system in one district, from the community-nominated CHW network through to the MRRS emergency response, co-managed with the District Health Management Team from Day 1 and governed by the Assessment Tool exit standard. District adoption partners fund a system, one built to reach every enrolled household continuously, measured quarterly against a defined standard and designed to be owned and operated by government and community when the partnership concludes.

Tell others
Not everyone can give financially but every introduction matters. A single conversation, a shared article, or a recommendation to the right funder, partner, researcher, or policymaker can open a relationship that changes what Wandikweza is able to build and where.
Proactive Doorstep Care is generating evidence about what it takes to build a last-mile maternal and child health system that a government will own, a community will trust and a family will use. The people who most need to know about this work often learn about it through a trusted introduction rather than a search.
If you know someone who should know about Wandikweza, telling them is a meaningful act.
Come and See
The best way to understand Proactive Doorstep Care is to see it in action. Across our districts, Wandikweza is building the same last-mile maternal and child health system in different geographies and stages of growth from established implementation sites to newer district expansions.
Each district offers a unique perspective on how care can reach families early, continuously and in time.
