“It always seems impossible until it’s done”
Famous words of Nelson Mandela many years ago. Today, we live up to those words by building a new sports field every year: starting today. Below, you’ll find the first two fields that were built in 2013 and 2015. These two preliminary projects led to the creation of Thundu as a foundation today, and paved the way for the upcoming field in Malawi
Malawi 2013
The first field was built in 2013 for YODEP, a Malawian non-profit organization that is committed to developing their local community
This first field was a preliminary project that led to Thundu
-
YODEP is a Malawian non-profit organization that is committed to developing their local community
Youth for Development and Productivity (YODEP) is a child and youth-focused non-profit making Organization established in the year 1998 in order to respond to the plight of the Malawian children and youth who live and grow in high-risk environments plagued by poverty, ignorance, malnutrition, and high rates of communicable diseases

The first project started in 2012 and was finalized in 2013

The sports field in Malawi was a prior project. During the first two projects, companies could not join. Therefore, no companies build their brand strength by supporting this field

This second field was a preliminary project that led to Thundu
