The Tunisian Association of SOS Villages, led by Mohamed Magdich, is set to launch a new program for collecting donations through major commercial spaces. This initiative awaits official approval from the Prime Minister's office and is expected to be announced next week. The program will enable citizens to make financial donations of their choice, which will be added to their purchase invoices at large commercial spaces without incurring any additional fees.
Magdich explained that the association aims to diversify its fundraising mechanisms, including bank accounts and direct electronic payments, to secure necessary resources for caring for children and their families in need. The SOS Villages association currently supports over 10,000 children, providing them with training, education, and recreational activities during school breaks. The association's efforts focus on providing assistance to vulnerable populations.
To improve its services and accessibility, the association recently opened a new office in the ninth arrondissement of Tunis. This new location aims to facilitate communication and provide services to families and children in various neighborhoods. Magdich invited Tunisians to support the association, emphasizing the importance of their contributions.
The SOS Villages association operates several programs, including the management of a village in Qamart, which benefits over 3,000 children. The village provides training, education, and recreational activities during school breaks. The association continues to develop its social work to reach a larger number of beneficiaries.
One of the association's major projects involves providing school transportation to support students and families in remote areas. The project aims to provide small buses and rural transportation for 1,000 students in distant areas, enabling them to commute to school. This initiative is part of the association's efforts to support 10,000 students.
Additionally, the association launched a campaign to collect aid for a water supply project in the deprived area of El Makrouba in Sfax. The project aims to drill a well at a primary school, providing clean drinking water to students and 35 families living nearby.
The association's efforts focus on supporting vulnerable populations, particularly children and their families. Through its various programs and projects, the SOS Villages association strives to make a positive impact on the lives of those in need in Tunisia.
