About The Children's Mission (d.b.a. Malawi Children's Mission)

The Children’s Mission (doing business as Malawi Children’s Mission, EIN 26-0558044) is a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) donor-facing charity headquartered in Redwood City, California that operates programs in the Lirangwe region near Blantyre, Malawi. Since its founding in 2007, MCM partners with local staff and Malawian agencies to deliver nutrition, primary education, basic health services, emotional support and life-skills training for orphaned and vulnerable children. In the past 2–3 years MCM has continued active programming and public fundraising: maintaining a feeding program that provides two daily meals for enrolled children, running a site-based primary school (MCM Academy), operating community food-security activities (notably an annual maize purchase and storage campaign), and hosting community events in partnership with local NGOs (most recently a Field Day held in February 2026). MCM publishes regular program updates and has current public filings and listings on nonprofit databases confirming ongoing activity.
