Madonna in Malawi

Madonna plants a Moringa tree at the site of her future academy for girls in a village north of Lilongwe, Malawi. The 51-year-old entertainer was joined by daughter Lourdes, 13, at the ground breaking ceremony and planting of the "miracle tree."

"Growing up in a privileged life, I took education for granted...but coming to Malawi has taught me a lot of things and (I have) learned to appreciate what life gives," Madonna said." I realized how much they deserve to be educated and so for me the best thing I could do was to build a school, a unique school that will create future female leaders, scientists, lawyers, doctors and if this school is successful it will be used as a model to replicate it in other countries.
