What is happening?
Project fully funded!
Thanks to all players, the project budget was reached yesterday! This means that materials and equipment for the ateliers of the centre can now be bought. Also, next month some companies will investigate the wishes of the disabled people, so that an action plan can be made to further improve the functioning of the centre.
Thank you all for your support!

Support from companies
In November I (Esther) will go back to Senegal. In the mean time the rain season is over and the disabled people are working hard in the center. They have organised many meetings in the different quarters of the village to inform disabled people about the activities in the center.
Starting from 20 November two people from companies will come to investigate the wishes of the disabled people and the possibilities for the center. Then they will make an action plan to improve the functioning of the center.

New board and campaign
The center for disabled people has got a new project leader, Ibrahima Dione and they are working very hard. At the beginning of September they have renewed the board of the association. This wind of change has brought them new inspiration for the project. Moreover in each quarter of the village meetings will be organised to attract new disabled people to the center for work and education "Mbokatoor".
The picture shows the meeting where the board of the association has been renewed.

Festival Kleurrijk Wijk (Colourful Wijk bij Duurstede)
I just came back from 4,5 months Senegal. The project is going well, there are many ateliers and the board of the association of disabled people has just been renewed. Also, I brought some products made by the disabled people to Holland and last Saturday we sold the products at the Kleurrijk Wijk festival. We also made pictures of children with a big toy tiger. It costed one euro and this money is also for the center of disabled people.

Our goal is to create a centre for disabled people. In this centre there will be a restaurant, a barbershop a craft atelier and a tailor atelier where disabled people will work.
