Help 500 Children Living in a Garbage Dump

Organization information

Arts To End Genocide

Location: New Bern, United States of America

Summary

ATEG's was asked to help with food insecurity within the Falhadie IDP Camp. The camp is in Bamako, Mali and is home to 1,000 IDPs, over half of them children. They fled terrorism in Central Mali and came to Bamako where they settled in a garbage dump and have been living under deplorable conditions. We felt the situation called for a broader intervention, including not only helping with food security but also child mentoring and providing skills training for the women.
