Government alone cannot manage to provide for each and every one of us. But through efforts like these, with your financial and material donations and encouragement, a lot of people with kidney challenges and needing dialysis treatment will be assisted,\u201d said Sean.<\/p>\n<p>The golf event has categorized sponsors ranging from Diamond, pegged at K25 million as headline partner, to Bronze Category, pegged at K5 million.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe trust that companies, organizations, and individuals who believe in Malawi as the late SKC did, will come forward and be part of this life-changing event for the underprivileged,\u201d said Luwe.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Malawi<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
