Freshwater Ambassador
Temwa Chawinga Champions Clean Water in Malawi Schools
Malawi’s soccer superstar Temwa Chawinga is stepping off the pitch to ensure children across Malawi have access to clean water, safe sanitation, and hygiene in their schools.
Partnering with Freshwater Project International, she is using her voice to spotlight the daily struggles students face without these basic necessities.
For Temwa, this mission is personal. Growing up in Malawi, she saw how the lack of clean water and safe toilets forced girls to miss class or walk long distances instead of studying. Now, she’s determined to help every child learn, dream, and thrive.
Together, Temwa and Freshwater are bringing solar-powered water systems, gender-friendly toilets, and hygiene resources to schools—building a healthier, more equitable future for the next generation.
