Tourism - Senegal

By registering for any trip to Senegal, an amount of $ 100, already included in your package, will be donated to the Foundation against indifference for Children's Aid. Uniktour is proud to be a partner of the foundation, which mission is to help children in difficult situations, especially working children, beggars and housemaids. We want to give back human dignity to these slaves of all kinds, reintegrate them into their families when possible and support them for enrollment in the official education system of the country. For teenagers, we want to make literacy and apprenticeships accessible, in order to offer economic independence to the sponsored young women and men.

Short term project: Support training in carpentry workshops for the twenty young boys who have already enrolled can learn safely. Providing appropriate footwear, masks and gloves will improve 100% of their working conditions. Also, it is necessary to provide basic classes of skills and knowledge appropriate for these future carpenters. Being illiterate, they lack a fundamental basis of their learning.

An association created by the efforts of two Canadians outraged that slavery still exists nowadays and affects young Senegalese, the Foundation against indifference for Children's Aid was established in 2009. For more information please visit: www.aide-enfance.org
