Madonna names Malawi hospital unit after daughter Mercy

Madonna has named a hospital unit building in Malawi after her adopted daughter Mercy James. 

The Queen of Pop took to her official Instagram account yesterday (October 1) and shared a photograph of the building's progress, which she accompanied with the following information:

"Here is the almost finished building of the Mercy James paediatric Surgery Unit in Malawi! Now we need to fill it with Equipment, train surgeons and medical. Personnel and create an endowment to sustain it in the years to come!!"

"We are kicking this off at Art Basel with Art Auction and Tears Of A Clown. If ticket prices are too high there are many other ways to help. Please go to @raisingmalawi website! And find out!! Thanks for your support."

The "Like A Virgin" icon is helping to fund the building of the Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital with money raised from her Raising Malawi Foundation.
