Big-hearted singing star Madonna is currently working on creating a sustainable school for girls in Malawi, Africa. Designed by New York-based Studio MDA, The Academy for Girls Malawi, is a campus powered entirely by solar energy and built with locally sourced materials.
The school will also include other eco-elements like hydraform bricks made from soil on the building site and double roofs that create natural ventilation.
The project is expected to be completed in 2012 and will accommodate 450 students.
Madonna now joins other influential celebrities undertaking large-scale humanitarian projects including Oscar-winning actress Angelina Jolie (Millennium Village in Cambodia), talk show magnate Oprah (The Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls in South Africa) and Brad Pitt (Make It Right Project in Louisiana).
