Give a better futur to child shepherds

Fille de bergers à l'école25.01.2012 - So that the shepherds of Burkina Faso can survive, their children actively participate in the daily chores. They pump water from wells, cut grass and watch the family’s cows and sheep.

Consequently, there is little time left for school. To ensure that these children receive an education, Enfants du Monde supports schools adapted to the needs and rhythms of the shepherd life style. Approximately 280 boys and girls benefit from this initiative.

With 160 Swiss francs, you enable a child to go to school for a year.

 

Zeimabou Mankayla, a student in Niamey (Niger):
"I am 13 years old. I’m going to school for the first time in my life. My parents never sent me to school before because they never had the means to pay for my tuition. Here, at the School for a Second Chance, the courses are free. I am learning to read and write in Zarma, my native language. I am also learning French: that’s important, because it’s the official language of my country. Some day I want to be a doctor."

With 360 Swiss francs a year, that's one franc per day, you enable a child in Niger go to school for a year.
