HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Madonna is headed back to Malawi this weekend, but this time she doesn't have any adoption plans.
The 51-year-old singer plans to attend a ceremony Monday in Lilongwe, where she is establishing a $15 million school.
"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 Madonna's Raising Malawi charity, who declined to be named, told Reuters.
Madonna first traveled to Malawi during a charity mission in which she filmed a documentary on the poverty and AIDS crisis there. She has since adopted two children from the southern African country, son David Banda, 4, and daughter Mercy James, 3.
Madonna also an 8-year-old son, Rocco, with ex-husband Guy Ritchie, and a 12-year-old daughter, Lourdes, from her relationship with fitness trainer Carlos Leon.
