London, Oct 26 (ANI): Pop queen Madonna has arrived in Malawi on behalf of her charity, Raising Malawi, to lay the foundation stone for the 15-million-dollar school she is building there.
The 51-year-old singer arrived on Oct 25 along with her four kids Lourdes, Mercy, Rocco and David.
The official said Madonna would take part in a groundbreaking ceremony for the girls school on Monday, reports the Telegraph.
The Material Girl adopted the Malawian-born Mercy this year after she adopted David in 2008.
