Empowering Rural Education

Many families in rural areas face serious challenges in affording school fees. As a result, children are often sent home and miss critical lessons, negatively impacting their academic performance.

We’ve supported over 50 rural students in the Atlantique department by covering tuition fees in the 2022–2023 academic year, helping them stay in school and improve their future opportunities.

Urban Student Sponsorship

In collaboration with school authorities, we identified three students at CEG Vedoko in Cotonou who were facing both financial and family hardships. We provided them with full tuition, school uniforms, pocket money, and printing costs for the 2023–2024 school year.

Although they faced academic setbacks and repeated the year, we remain committed to supporting their long-term development.

Emergency Health Assistance

Through our active monitoring of social media and local appeals, we respond to urgent health-related calls for help. Many families lack the resources for lifesaving treatment.

So far, we have allocated over 1,000,000 CFA francs to help cover medical bills, demonstrating our commitment to compassion and solidarity in moments of crisis.
