A Helping Hand
We are working with local organizations to improve the infrastructure of Yirwal, a West African village, located in Burkina Faso, a landlocked country where French is an official language. Thus far, we have funded an ambulance, two flour mills and a water well. By improving the infrastructure of the village and empowering women entrepreneurs, we have improved conditions for the community. Easy access to water has been especially beneficial for children, improving attendance at the local school. Currently, we are planning a training center to prepare young people for work.
