Despite the low fundraising for this project so important for vulnerable young people in the region of Saint-Louis of Senegal who engage in the agricultural professions in order to secure their future, Association Jeunesse Espoir continues to believe in the realization of this project to provide training, coaching and decent employment for 250 young girls and boys in agricultural professions.
The association has made fundraisings at the level of local partners and businesses and finally to ensure training and coaching activities for young people at the incubator level.
During the last three months the young people have cultivated groundnuts, peppers and tomatoes. The harvests were sold by going door to door in the districts of Saint-Louis by the young people and the receipts were equitably shared between the young people under the arbitration of the association so that they could economically support their precarious families.
At the moment, the needs for agricultural equipment and inputs to improve the quality of training and coaching for young people during their agricultural incubation.
Once again we invite the fantastic GlobalGiving community and donors who have always supported AJE's projects to join and support this ambitious and magnificent project which remains a solution for unemployment and youth poverty in Africa and beyond. particularly in Senegal.
As Conficius said: "it is better to learn someone to fish than to offer him fish every day. Like this valuable quote from this wise man, Association Jeunesse Espoir encourages young people to enterprise through training.
