Support a local project

« ensemble, agissons » bring a financial, material and human contribution to the realisation of programmes initiated by Vimukti association. Managed by the Capuchin Franciscan friars since 1999, we have witnessed what a remarkable job Vimukti has done.

Together with a project director, a team of educators and youth leaders put in place an educational and health programme. The first phase started in Autumn 2009. A budget de 15 000 euros annually for a period of three years will help create a sustainable foundation for our support system. Regular assessments, organized by the village committee and the community, will be carried out and submitted to the people responsible for both associations.

Through a very diverse programme of activities, we will mutualise our human and financial resources. Cultural and sportive partnerships and events will be set up: cross-country biking, cycling and hiking, art and photographic exhibitions, shows, conferences, etc. All the initiatives are studied with great interest and the totality of the funds are given to the Pothnal project.

With personal funds, we will travel to India each year to meet the local partners. Assessments will be communicated to all the supporters and we will give an account of the project’s development on our blog.
