Last weekend's first episode of Les Courses du Coeur (Groceries from the Heart) was a huge success!
Most clients who did their shopping at Jumbo or Leader Price have given something to help street and other vulnerable children in Tana. The four beneficiaries are:
- Akani Fitahiana's children (www.tanastreetchildren.blogspot.com) in Akorondrano
- Les Graines de Bitume (http://www.grainesdebitume.org/)
- Grandir Dignement (www.grandirdignement)- helping children in prisons
- Centre Sainte Marie - orphanage in Mamasina
We received hundreds of kilos of rice, boxes full of cooking oil, immense piles of biscuits, milk, sardines, dried beans, pasta, noodles, soap bars, dish liquid etc etc...
Old and young, Malagasy or foreign, rich or poor, everyone gave something!
Thank you also to the sponsors: Telma Foundation, Croustipain, Infinithe
