Access to education and support for young people, a CFE Finance priority since ever
CFE Finance actively participates in making our world a better place. For many years we have helped implement different projects in the Republic of Benin, where literacy rate is among the lowest in the world.
CFE Finance focuses on:
- Helping young children, victims of violence, in their reinsertion into a normal school life as well as finding them new homes
- Helping fight against exploitation and abuse of girls. Currently there are 80 girls boarded at the home that we support
- Helping provide vocational training for illiterate girls and boys in 4 branches: cooking and pastry courses, home art and soap production. Many girls and boys have found jobs as the result of such training.
- The House of the Sun: a project to support abused single mothers with their children (recovery, training and family reintegration).
- Agricultural training for rural girls at farms
- Supporting children in prison and their reinsertion into normal life after imprisonment
Creating a free phone line for abused and violated women and girls - Teaching abused girls participate in different crafts in order to gain their independence and earn their living.
