Masambuka Clinic
STACC is raising funds to complete a new health clinic, staff house, toilet and washing facilities, and a clinical‑waste incinerator in Masambuka village, Malawi. Malawi remains one of the ten poorest countries in the world, and Masambuka is a remote community with extremely limited access to healthcare. The nearest health facility lies 10 km away along a single dirt road, and children with fever and women in labour have tragically died while attempting to walk there for treatment. The new clinic and staff house will allow a government‑funded health worker to live in the village, providing essential care and tackling preventable diseases such as cholera and malaria.
A water borehole has already been constructed, and funds have been secured to install solar power for both the clinic and staff house. Once powered, the clinic will also have cold‑storage facilities, enabling it to operate as a vaccination centre for the wider area.

The builders have completed the staff house, and the clinic’s internal plastering is now finished. With that milestone reached, the building is ready for the metal roof sheets to go on—real progress on site.
