‘THIS TRAINING GAVE ME HOPE AND THE CHANCE TO BUILD MY OWN FUTURE’

Kondwani Kamwendo, Metalworking Student at Music Crossroads Malawi

“Before I started the training, I had been sitting at home for four years without a job. I didn’t know what to do with my life until I heard from friends about the metalworking course at Music Crossroads. Their stories got me excited, and I decided to sign up. That was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.”

“The training has taught me so much. Not only about the technical side of metalworking, but also how to make products that customers need. I can now create various metal products, even custom-made according to the customer’s wishes. It’s an amazing feeling to see how you can create something with your own hands.”

“My plan is, once I’ve completed my training, to open my own workshop. I would love to help other young people who are in the same situation I was in, without work and without hope. What I’ve learned, I want to pass on, so they too can get a new chance to improve their future.”
