Our journey from Dalmally to Malawi

Your miles are helping to provide school meals to hungry children

Congratulations and thank you! 

Congratulations from everyone in the Mary’s Meals family for crossing the From Dalmally To Malawi finish line!  

Together, we've travelled thousands of miles on our virtual journey across Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Your amazing fundraising will help us feed hungry children across the world!

Thank you so much for taking part. 

Day 30: We've made it to Malawi! 

Our incredible From Dalmally to Malawi fundraisers have crossed the virtual finish line!

The children of Makata Primary School in Malawi joyfully celebrated the amazing efforts of all our wonderful challengers.

A huge well done and a massive thank you to everyone who took part in the challenge, for every mile completed and every pound raised to help us feed hungry children.

There's still time to support our campaign by donating today.

Day 27: A message from Jacquline in Zambia

Today our From Dalmally To Malawi fundraisers have reached Zambia – where Jacquline has an important message for everyone who supports our work.

Zambia is where we operate our second largest school feeding programme. More than 420,000 children there receive our life-changing meals every school day.

The UN estimates that almost 50% of people in Zambia can’t meet their daily calorie requirements. With survival often taking precedence over education, 45% of Zambia's primary school age children drop out of school early.

Together, we can keep our promise to children like Jacquline so that they can learn their way to a brighter future without hunger.

Day 14: Halfway there! 

We’re halfway through our virtual journey From Dalmally To Malawi! Congratulations – we’ve made it to Medjugorje in Bosnia-Herzegovina!

Medjugorje holds an important place in the history of our mission. Our work grew from an appeal in 1992 to help those living in war-torn Bosnia-Herzegovina.

Today, people from all over the world learn about Mary's Meals, and our work to feed more than 2.4 million children every school day, at the information centre in Medjugorje.

Remember you can create a fundraiser on Facebook or JustGiving where can easily track of how much you've raised towards your target as you go.

Day 9: Cheering you on from Germany

Last autumn Lucia, a supporter from Germany, took on a sponsored bike ride from Dusseldorf to Mannheim to raise money for Mary’s Meals.

Her incredible efforts even saw her busking with signs about world hunger to raise awareness along the way! Now, she’s cheering on everyone taking part in our challenge.

Day 1 : On your marks, get set, GO!

Our founder Magnus MacFarlane-Barrow waves us off from the shed in the Scottish Highlands where the Mary's Meals story began!

Don't forget to set up your Facebook Fundraiser or JustGiving page and ask your friends and family for sponsorship. You can also join our exclusive online community for inspirational video messages and stories from Mary’s Meals to encourage you along the way.   

It's not too late to support 

Together, we can keep our promise to the 2.4 million children receiving our nutritious meals each day so that they can learn their way to a brighter future without hunger.
