Conakry Terminal is committed to the education and well-being of children in Mamou

Conakry Terminal, a subsidiary of Africa Global Logistics (AGL), is pleased to provide financial support for the completion of the construction of the Danouwely Kol-Kol Madeleine school in Mamou, owned by the NGO Guinea Education Volunteering. This contribution also includes food assistance for a period of one year for the children of beggars attending this school.

The construction project for this school includes eight classrooms, an administrative office, a multi-purpose room, as well as modern sanitary facilities. This new educational framework will be intended to provide an environment conducive to student learning, while meeting the essential needs of hygiene and school organization.

This initiative aims to relieve families in need while promoting school regularity and student concentration.

«We strongly believe that education is a fundamental right and an essential pillar for the future of Guinea. By investing in this project and providing food assistance to children in vulnerable situations, we are reaffirming our commitment to building a better future for all.» Emmanuel Masson, Managing Director of Conakry Terminal

This collaboration between the private sector and civil society is a powerful example of how the combined efforts of businesses and civil society organizations can have a significant impact on local communities. The inauguration of the school is scheduled for the next school year, marking a new stage in the educational development of the Mamou region.
