In total, 3 dormitories and toilets have been renovated for the inhabitants of these orphanages.

«On behalf of all the women and children of Kiridiya, we sincerely thank Africa Global Logistics in Guinea for this gesture. Thanks to your donations, our girls will all have better hygiene with protection when they need it and access to water in the toilets with our new water tower. Thank you also for all our children, who will sleep in better conditions» BANGOURA Marie Denise , Manager of the Kiridiya orphanage.
«Thank you to Africa Global Logistics for this help. Our orphanage has just been the victim of a fire that destroyed everything and the donations received are a considerable help for the life of our girls and all our children» Yarie CAMARA , Manager of the orphanage La voix des Sans Voix.
