BNP Paribas has decided to aid underprivileged children in India and in Gambia through Net4kids.
- India: sustainable help to street children in Tirupur
A sustainable ecological park has been selected as a tool to rehabilitate street children. The park will provide food, shelter, education, training and recreation. It will cultivate the habit of an ecologically sustainable living style. The energy of street children will be converted into positive action.
- Gambia: Marie Bennetts Skill training centre
this training (s) centre is a good example of such a positive action. Every year in Gambia hundreds of children either drop out of school due to pregnancy, lack of funds or leave school without any form of employment. In the rural areas and suburbs there are virtually no affordable skill training centres either for youths or women to learn skills in order to earn a living for themselves and their families. The Marie Bennetts Skill training centre helps them out.
