Abstract

Africa is known as a poor continent compares to other continets like, Asia, North and SouthAmerica, Europe. The research shows that a lot of  non -profit oriented organisations that are engaged in development programs have been opened since  most countries in africa received their independents. However, despite the availability of such  organisations still africa appear on the map as a poor and developing continent. There are several reasons that have attributed to this crippledness. Perpertual dependant on  foreing aid is one of the major reasons. Africa is hungry for action leaders.  There are few non governmental organisation that are both involved in educating human beings and development programs. Unless human is educted, he can not  maintain the suistanability of  the development. 

In Malawi for instance the project of boreholes in remote areas failed to be maintained its suistanability because most of the villagers were lacking the knowledge of maintenance and among others.  In the year 2002 a non profit organisation by the name People’ Institute for Holistic Education and community development was born. This is the project that has stood since its birth providing both holistic education and suistabable development  especially southren part of Malawi..
