Description of the project:

The Congregation of the Sisters of St. Francis of Assisi in Tshumbe is an institution for diocesan legislation, founded in 1953. The congregation provides schools, health centers, maternities and hospitals and orphanages.
The context in which we run our schools is very complex and financially difficult, within the congregation and among the population. The economic crisis complicates and blocks the realization or implementation of certain projects, in particular the repair and construction of houses.
This is the case today with the repair of the roof of a primary school building, swept away by a major storm that has never been seen in our area. The situation is dramatic, the students are outside.

Repairing the roof of a building of the Afumba primary school, washed away by the storm: a firmer roof that is adapted to the current climatic conditions and enables the good study conditions for our students.

9.380,00$ (8417€)

Risks:

No risk with the realization of this project, we have the certainty to execute the project on time.
