Madonna’s Newest Million Dollar Project…
Madonna is heading back to Malawi, but this time with an agenda other than adoption.
The pop-diva is returning to the African country on behalf of her charity, Raising Malawi, to lay the foundation stone for the $15 million school she will be building there.
“She plans to meet the President Bingu wa Mutharika and together lay a foundation stone for her multi-million dollar girls school,” a staffer at the charity told Reuters Thursday.
The plan for this school comes just two years after Oprah, another high-profile philanthropist, opened a boarding school for girls in South Africa. The school opened in 2007 and was instantly shaken by two sex scandals in under two years.
Well, hopefully Madge can manage to successfully open her school and avoid any sex scandals in the years to come…

Madonna really is so generous. In a time when money is such an issue, it’s nice to see that they people who have it put it to good use for the people who need it most.
