Food aid in all partner centers

True to its ongoing commitment to the well-being of children in its partner centers, the “Coeur à keur” Foundation continued its quarterly and systematic deliveries of essential foodstuffs in 2025. This year marked a significant milestone with the integration of a new beneficiary: the “Saint Paul Ami des Aveugles” center in Tori laho, which also received its first delivery of provisions, testifying to the continued extension of the Foundation’s action to support a growing number of children.

Pediatric consultations

In March 2025, the “Cœur à Keur” Foundation placed expertise at the heart of its health campaign by entrusting pediatric consultations and nutritional checks to a recognized professional, Professor HOUNNOU Gervais. This collaboration made it possible to successfully carry out a vast initiative in its partner centers, where the state of health of 80 children was assessed and appropriate medical care offered. A rigorous post-consultation follow-up, orchestrated by the recommendations of Professor HOUNNOU Gervais, was put in place to ensure the scrupulous application of medical prescriptions for each beneficiary child.

Training in the safe use of IT tools

As part of its ongoing efforts to promote education and bridge the digital divide, the “Cœur à Keur” Foundation has launched a training program in the sound use of IT tools in partner centers equipped with multimedia libraries. This initiative aims to raise children’s awareness of the responsible, safe and educational use of digital technologies, while instilling basic skills. It enables children to familiarize themselves with IT tools, learn how to carry out useful research, protect their personal data and develop the digital autonomy that is essential in today’s world.

First aid training courses

From May to June 2025, the “Cœur à Keur” Foundation organized practical first aid training courses for children at its partner centers and their supervisors. The aim of these sessions was to equip participants with the essential skills to respond effectively to emergency situations such as illness, injury, or accidents in the home. Led by experienced firefighters, the sessions taught lifesaving techniquesalerting, protecting, resuscitatingwhile emphasizing prevention and collective responsibility. This initiative is part of the Foundation’s mission to promote not only education, but also the health and safety of the communities it supports.

Artistic expression and public speaking sessions

In July 2025, theCœur à KeurFoundation hosted artistic expression and public speaking sessions led by Mr. Raouf MAMA, an internationally renowned storyteller, trainer, teacher, and author. These workshops provided children and young participants with a space for learning and discovery, where they could develop their selfconfidence, creativity, and ability to express themselves in public. Through practical exercises and role-playing, participants learned to use speech and art as a means of promoting their identity and sharing their stories.

Pediatric consultations

During the last week of July 2025, the “Coeur à Keur” Foundation organized pediatric consultations that allowed 88 children from highly vulnerable families to be examined in the neighborhood of Fidjrossè. These consultations, provided by a committed medical team, were an essential opportunity for screening, early care and awareness of parents on good child health practices. Regular medical follow-up was ensured until October 2025, ensuring continuity of care and better management of identified cases. This initiative illustrates the Foundation’s commitment to putting the health and well-being of children at the heart of its priorities.
 

Donation of school kits for the year 2025-2026

At the beginning of September 2025, the “Coeur à Keur” Foundation distributed school kits for children from vulnerable families, in partnership with the NGO “Houenoussou Gnonnoulenitchité”. This initiative, organized at the start of the school year 2025-2026, aimed to address a major obstacle to schooling: the lack of essential supplies. A total of 99 complete school kits were given to the beneficiaries to start the year in good conditions. This gesture of solidarity aims not only to relieve the financial burdens of families, but also to encourage the educational success of children, in line with the Foundation’s Education axis.
