In mid - 2008, during one of our regular visits in our health post, we met a woman with a son who is 8 years old waiting for a medical consultation.
Malick, is the name of the child, a dwarf (achondroplasia). When we asked her mother if she took him to school, she thought that we were laughed at her.
His family, threatened to be expulsed, because did not have the means and we proposed that she let us take him to Mbackombel (a village) so that he could study in our school and live with the village’s children. He always has good marks at school.
At a later date, when he finished (Malick) his primary studies, we decide to take him to our boarding school in Mbour. There, he also has good marks at the secondary school.
Lastly, he followed training in an academy as an electrician and panel solar technician after two years of study.
He was the best student of his class and now he is ready and want to financially help his family.
These little stories push us to continue the project we have started since 2002 in the educational et social domain.
We would like to thank her sponsor who has financed a professional training.

A course that has ended and…. with this, it's been 20 since we started this project, with the construction of the Mbackombel school.
470 primary school students and 160 kindergarten students say goodbye to the 2021-2022 academic year, with the usual awards ceremony, which is attended by parents and families.
The Mbackombel School remains at the forefront among rural schools (public and private) in the area for its level and facilities.
We have to point out that three of the teachers are former students of the school, which shows that our project is working.
Soon we will publish a list of students who are being trained or have been trained at the university and/or academies.
We are achieving these 20 years of continuity in our project thanks to the SPONSORS, PARTNERS, DONORS, PRIVATE ENTITIES and VOLUNTEERS, who year after year support us and believe in our project.
THANK YOU!

One more year and our Mbackombel School, full as always. 10 primary classrooms (470 students) plus 6 nursery classrooms (160 students) full of children. Three former students, Djibril Diouf, Elisabeth Sarr and Pascaline Ndour, are already part of the teaching staff.
We remember that in our beginnings (2002-2003 academic year), we had 32 students!!! Asun, accompanied by the school principal, had to go house to house and town by town in order to convince them to let their children go to school.
We believe that parents are being trained to accept that the future is in education.
Currently, more than 50% are girls, something unthinkable years ago.
And the story goes on ... and on, thanks to the sponsors and collaborators. THANK YOU
Can you help us to grow? www.puse.org/en/collaborate.html
Over the years, the results are coming and our students evolve.
We can list some of the results: Gane Kama, last year of medicine, Marie Diouf and Daba Diouf, last year of nursing, Daba Séne, hostelry, Angele Diouf, national teacher (already practicing), Djibril Diouf, degree in English (works as a teacher) Malick Diop, last year of electrician, Anta Diouf, Secretary of Direction… and thus we could go listing a more extensive list.
In addition, we have selected a group of students to whom we are guiding them towards new ICT technologies, through distance online courses (sometimes in person) by a group of volunteers (José Mª Catot, Clara Gregori, Berta Morera , Pedro Argany and a team from the UPC de Manresa led by Prof. Jordi Bonet), all of them highly qualified.
We are achieving all this thanks to the support of the sponsor, partners, collaborators, and entities that finance us, mainly the M. I. Baciana Foundation.
THANKS TO ALL!!!

We want to improve the access of our children to school, providing them with BICYCLES since this will allow more children to join school.
With this means of transport we will reduce the dropout rate and school absenteeism, which for some is increasing since, due that it is very hard for them to walk due to the distance that separates the school from their homes.
In this first phase, we are going to build a repair shop at the College of Louly and provide them with 60 bicycles.
Bicycles will be assigned to students who reside further away from the school, under a usufruct regime.
We ask you to support us in this challenge. We must get € 2,500 through the collaboration of people like you.
Enter https:// www.migranodearena.org/reto/-bicicletas-para-ir-al-cole- and make your donation.
If we succeed, it will be one of the winning projects from the # T2M matchfunding call, and an additional € 1,500 will be donated.
Thanks for your support!
WITH THE BICYCLES… WE APPROACH THE SCHOOL TO THE CHILDREN !
