Where are you from? Proudly Malawian via Universal :D
Favorite Musician & Song: A bit of a tricky question. I love music so much that it would be impossible to name one artist and song......anything catchy with a message I can relate to is good enough....I love African music though and Jazz!!
Fav. Movie: Errrrrmmm can’t choose one but here are a few of my favourites Hotel Rwanda, Sarafina, Sound of Music and Sister Act 2 to name a few
Favorite Foods: As long as it’s good food and edible I will eat, I try not to be a fussy eater because there are people out there starving.....therefore I can only be grateful!!
Favorite quote:
Be the best blessed you that you can be and be the difference...... every single individual is an architect of their future
Your Greatest Achievement: What is a great achievement? As long as we still have children starving and dying of HIV/AIDS then no one has achieved anything great.......However I’m hopeful that a generation of ordinary people with an extraordinary purpose is rising up......therefore together in unity we will hopefully achieve what many leaders have failed to do.
I saw some pictures on your facebook when you went back to malawi, Can you tell me more about that?:
Yes I was in Malawi working over there doing humanitarian, mission work and it was an excellent trip. I have an orphanage there and also support other causes there.
Well I have a vision for countries around the globe stricken by poverty and the Aids epidemic; however I think the proverb states “Charity begins at home”. I along with my friend Michelle are doing loads of humanitarian work in Malawi currently, we are in the early stages of building an orphanage, our vision is to also have youth and women empowerment centres which we are in the process of looking into in order to start building.....We need all the financial help we can get. We are also fundraising money in order to ship off blankets we would love to donate to Balaka District Hospital. Our next destination is Mozambique and Zimbabwe.....let me quote my Cousin Masauko Chipembere Jnr “We grow from seed to tree, me and my people building”.
Building is what we are doing, between now and the next five years we hope to set a stable and firm foundation in our foundation, in order to do big things. I will keep you posted on more projects that are in the pipeline, for now my vision and purpose is to serve people in different communities from all walks of life.
What message or advice would you give to young malawi girls?
Never stop dreaming, aim high and never sell yourself short, be the best blessed you now because you only have one life to live!!
I know your big into music as well as fashion. Tell me what/who inspires you
My Inspiration comes from my faith in God, family and friends, surroundings, culture, travel and every day ordinary people who do extraordinary things. A fusion of different things really!!

You go Cuzzo. I am proud of you but mostly thank God for paving a way to make a change. like pastor quoted the bible says 'he who has began a good work in you is faithful to complete it to the day of Jesus Christ. so keep pressing on and know provision is made for you. oh did I say I miss malawi lol, just had to throw it in, I hope to do and have a similar impact when I go, but God bless and big up to black cherry mag, keep up the great work, and the smallest things we might take for granted makes a great difference to those who haven't got it, well done black cherry mag and Cuzzo - Lydia. God bless. . .
