2022 Edition
Our team of volunteers once again walked the streets of the poorest neighborhood of Abidjan to bring joy to the hearts of underprivileged, families. This year, they added a "chicken" to the list of donated items. A chicken may not mean much for people of the developed world as it is consumed very frequently, however in those neighborhoods, it is a luxury for most people to be able to afford poultry. Being able to cook a chicken is an essential part of the holidays festivities, and is for many the only time they'd be able to afford the meat. You can imagine the joy in people's heart when they saw the present we brought them. In one instance, the team met a cancer patient who had been drained financially due to his health treatments; In tears, he told the team, "I had no idea how I was going to provide a meal for my family today, but you came to the rescue in the most unexpected way, God is good. "

2020 EDITION
A few years ago, we started an initiative called “La magie de noel”, which means the magic of Christmas.
The goal was to provide a Christmas meal to underprivileged families in various Ivorian communities. The response was tremendous and we were able to reach over 50 people; mostly widows and single moms who were planning to go to bed hungry on Christmas Eve.
This year, we want to invite you who can and are willing to donate the cost of a meal to help provide meals for those in need and help them feel the spirit of the season.
