We started our activities in 2000 with the assistance of mothers in distress, through the creation of a solidarity group between women gathered in the context of religious activities. The group was later formalized as an NGO in 2004. We are women facing precariousness, who decided to act to change their lives. situation and improve their environment.
We are in Cotonou, the economic capital of Benin in West Africa where children and women are the most disadvantaged, in a context of widespread poverty, where culture is not favorable to gender equality and where children's rights are poorly respected.
We started a nursery and daycare center in 2008. The purpose of this center is to provide an area of protection and education for children, help and training for women in difficulty, including single mothers, single mothers and out-of-school girls. providing services that help families in general. The resources to run the center were planned to come from wealthier families to whom the center offers services (nursery, nursery, nursery school).
During our 10 years of experiences; the operation has been extremely difficult, in that the resources obtained from the services are insuf- ficient. Our activities in the center are:
Daily cares for children (hygiene, meals)
- children's education (nursery school, kindergarten, tutoring)
- Children's Holidays (Holiday Camp, Christmas Celebration)
-crafting and sewing and embroidery (in installation)
-sensitization to the place of the mothers, the mothers-mothers, the members of the NGO and the population in general, on the problems:
.Child's rights
.Safety at work
.promotion of women / gender and development.
