BRIEF PROJECT OUTLINE:
The Public Primary School (EPP) of Antsampanimahazo has taken a decisive step forward in improving its learning environment with the inauguration of two new school buildings comprising a total of three classrooms. All equipped with modern school furniture, these facilities aim to meet the high demand and provide children with a more suitable and motivating learning setting.
The first building, consisting of two classrooms, was made possible through co-financing of 99,336,425 Ariary provided by Vanilla Corporation of America and The Street Foundation. The second building, dedicated to preschool, was funded with 47,411,510 Ariary, co-financed by Court Fields School and Friends of Hassocks Infant School. These loyal partners of the NGO Madagascar Development Fund (MDF) have already supported several community projects and continue to demonstrate their commitment to promoting education for young children.
The total funds allocated to these projects amount to 146,747,935 Ariary. Part of the financing was also used to build compartmental latrines. In addition, preschool children received educational toys to stimulate their curiosity and facilitate their learning.
With an expanded capacity, the 500 pupils of EPP Antsampanimahazo now benefit from a safer, more spacious, and more conducive environment for academic success. MDF expresses its deep gratitude to all its partners for their generosity and commitment, which are paving the way for a brighter future for the children of the community.
