Twinning LCUSA / AIC Madagascar
Financial help was received on November 7th 2014 : 5843 Euros. The schooling project and nutrition of the poor children is ongoing, in addition to other sorts of activities such as empowering mothers and forming them in hygiene and health care.
At the end of 2013, the World Food Program (WFP) stopped helping the groups in food supplies and the volunteers began to be worried about how to continue with the daily meals for the hundreds of children who attend school. Fortunately, PROVIDENCE is always there and how happy we were when we heard about the subsidies sent by the Ladies of Charity USA.
Upon agreement from the AIC Project Service, we decided to send money to the groups who look after many pupils according to the table below. Most of the financial help will be used for the daily nutrition of the children during this school year:
| Group | Beneficiaries | Sum of money sent | Money used for |
| Manakara | 350 children | 1100 euros | Nutrition |
| Fianarantsoa | 200 children | 900 euros | Nutrition |
| Anosizato An/rivo | 160 Children | 700 euros | Nutrition |
| Ankadisoa An/rivo | 60 Children | 500 euros | Nutrition |
| Vohipeno | 67 Children | 500 euros | Nutrition |
| Ambolosy | 80 Mothers | 500 euros | Poultry Breeding for the mothers’ empowerment |
| AIC Marillac F/D | 20 handicapped children | 200 euros | Christmas 2014 and nutrition |
| AIC Tanambao | 40 very poor children | 200 euros | Christmas 2014 with their mothers and the volunteers |

AIC Project With Children : GROUP FIANARANTSOA MADAGASCAR
200 children from 5 years old (kindergarten) to 18-20 years old (University) attend our Centre 5 days a week.
At noon they come back from school and are given a meal. Our Centre functions during the school year from October to July (for 10 months).
Giving food to these poor children is very important as it allows them to continue their studies. Education is a way to fight against poverty.
