One Well At a Time

We are a student-founded and run organization that was founded in 2021, we have grown into a crucial part of the culture at SJNA with over 15 representatives from both the Military and Prefect Academy.

The mission statement of the St. John's Starfish Foundation is to raise funds for the installation and maintenance of wells in Malawi, Africa, that will supply clean water to villages and schools. By providing access to clean water, we hope to improve the lives of those in need and preserve their human dignity.

Malawi is a country in Southeastern Africa, with a population of just over 20 million. 10 million, are children under the age of 18. Many Malawian communities lack clean drinking water, leaving the job to young women who are forced to walk long distances carrying roughly 40 pounds of water just to provide for their families. As a result, many of them are late for school.
