The year at the AGAPE Center began peacefully. Everyone was able to enjoy in one way or another the festivities linked to end of year and new year. After the euphoria of the holidays, the return to routine business.
AGAPE started the year intensively. In its keen prospect of perpetuating its work and its actions, AGAPE association in partnership with French association SOLENCA, have invested in prospecting for a plots of land that can promote the realization of this project. This is to build a new larger, better adapted, more functional center capable of accommodating more children in distress and on the street. Thanks for the efforts of SOLENCA, friends, supporters of AGAPE and especially to Globalgiving and its donors. This quest resulted in 2016 in the acquisition of a plot of land of about 1,500 m² in Japoma. And today, it is our duty to build the new center. Thus in January, AGAPE association was visited by two members of SOLENCA association to finalize the plans that will be used for the construction of the future center. But also to lead together reflections and develop strategies favorable to the raising of funds necessary for the realization of this project.
The HHH of Douala (group of sporting) had organized a sporting and solidarity march for the young people of AGAPE association. And the children participated in the occasion on February 18, 2017. And they brought essential products for the kids. This, thanks to Antonina who is a volunteer in AGAPE association and a HHH member.
AGAPE Youth once again gave a performance of their play '' Au Ministère du Soya '' at la Maison des jeunes et des cultures at New Bell. Winner of the Goethe Institute's Discovery Award in the theater category, they continue to perform their shows until 17 May at the Goethe Institute and 19 May at the AMT in Yaoundé.
On Saturday, March 25th, the AGAPE Center was visited by a medical team in order to bring the youth to a consultation. At the end of consultation, a prescription was made for each child. The drugs prescribed to meet their different needs were immediately delivered on 28 March.
The results have fallen and it is the status quo for some and an improvement for others. Although the improvement is still insufficient to obtain an average greater than or equal to 10. For others still the difficulty seems insurmountable. But we are optimistic and will double up so that all these young people go to higher classes and pass their exams.
