On the 19th of July 19 young people said goodbye to the orphanages and the MIA/ALMA refuge. They are now on the threshold of a completely new chapter in life and they are ready to go.

AMPO will continue to support them for another two years to assist them in the transition.

9 young men from the Orphanage for Boys, 5 young women from the Orphanage for Girls and another 5 from the MIA/ALMA Women’s Refuge took part in the lovely farewell ceremony not without emotion.

Many of them have completed secondary school, have passed their final certificate exams or have undergone vocational training.

The best ones received a Burkina Faso state bursary to enable them to buy school supplies.

 

We wish them all the very best for the future!
