2017
The charitable L’île aux Enfants school has been supporting development, healthcare and educational initiatives in a poor neighborhood in Tananarive, Madagascar, for over six years now.
Initiative supported: Renovating a canteen and planting a vegetable garden at a school in Tananarive, Madagascar.
The goal is to improve the school’s self-sufficiency in food, provide greater dietary variety at mealtimes and raise children’s awareness about good nutrition.
In 2012, the Bel Foundation funded the construction of a school canteen at the charity school.
The 2017 donation will fund the five-year-old canteen’s renovation and re-equipping, as well as the planting of a 150-meter vegetable garden. The vegetable garden will help provide a daily meal and two snacks for each child, while raising their awareness.
Social impact: 210 children aged thee to 12 are expected to benefit from these improvements.
