Summary and headline written by AI from the source article. How we work
Actions pour un meilleur changement (APMC), a Senegalese association, installed a water pump and tank at a Quranic school in Tivaouane Peulh, improving daily life for the students, known as talibés.
The association, led by Abdoulaye Macalou Cissé, works to provide potable water, hygiene kits, and clothing to talibés across the country. APMC funded the installation in Tivaouane Peulh with its own resources, marking its second water access project.
Previously, the association installed a pump in Djiddah Thiaroye Kao with a 500,000 FCFA grant from the Fonds Yaakaar, supported by the Consortium Jeunesse Sénégal (CJS) and the Agence française de développement (AFD). APMC also repaired a pump at a school in Nietti Mbar and plans to expand its work nationally, seeking contributions to support its efforts. The association will regularly monitor the installed pumps and cover all operating and maintenance costs to ensure they continue functioning.
