Mary Chilima to Launch SKC Foundation on February 12
In a heartfelt tribute to her late husband, former Vice President Saulos Klaus Chilima, Mary Chilima is set to launch the SKC Foundation on February 12, 2025—what would have been his 52nd birthday. The Foundation, a non-partisan, non-political trust, aims to carry forward Dr. Chilima’s vision of hope, progress, and empowerment for Malawians through education, self-reliance, and leadership development.
“The SKC Foundation will be a beacon of hope, ensuring Dr. Chilima’s dreams for Malawi and Africa live on,” Mary shared in an exclusive interview. The launch gala, a black-tie event at the Bingu International Convention Centre, will feature dinner, speeches, and tributes, with tickets priced at MK100,000 (silver), MK200,000 (gold), and MK300,000 (platinum).
Proceeds will support underprivileged students, crisis aid, youth leadership programs, and initiatives promoting self-sufficiency. “This is not just about honoring his legacy; it’s about inspiring generations to come,” Mary Chilima emphasized.
Dr. Chilima tragically passed away in a plane crash on June 10, 2024, alongside eight others. The Foundation stands as a testament to his enduring spirit and dedication to Malawi’s future.
Good development and go ahead
Good move
As he wished for a better Malawi, launching this will be making his dreams come true ,we all Malawians are behind you madam
Thus great 👍
I don’t think those who advises the late SKC wife are honest,
The wife is strong, enough to save the nation,
But who told her not to take the party on,
Should be questioned, yes,
Could have advised her to take the party and no to abandon it,
. today, they also advise her just to open an organization, something is missing here.
I want to thank you mama God bless you and your objective 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
