We are The Children and Youth Foundation (Fundação da Criança e da Juventude), a non-profit social solidarity institution.
Our mission is to improve equal opportunities for the most underprivileged population in São Tomé by promoting education, health and human rights to local children and young people.
The Children and Youth Foundation, promoted a fundraising campaign for the remodeling of their home, which every day welcomes more than 100 children. For this, we counted on the help of all the local employees and volunteers to carry out some of the work, while for others we hired qualified professionals. We refurbished several places, namely the kitchen, classrooms and playground. Our aim is, and always will be, to create safe, clean and organized spaces, with good quality materials – but this will be an ongoing job and will be updated as it develops.
