The children’s unit in Queen Elizabeth Central hospital in Malawi will open on the 11th of July. The pop icon, who adopted Mercy and David from the African nation, visited the Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital in July last year to oversee the construction of a new children’s wing she was helping to fund with the help of her Raising Malawi Foundation, which she created in 2006 – the same year she adopted David.

Madonna has named the hospital unit she is building in Malawi, which will be the first pediatric surgery and intensive care unit in any Malawi hospital, after her adopted daughter Mercy James. The unit will consist of three operating rooms, a 50-bed ward and a playroom.

On Instagram, she shared pictures of the construction taking shape at the hospital and wrote, “Here is the almost finished building of the Mercy James pediatric Surgery Unit in Malawi!”
