We help the parents of the community to have their own businesses by providing them with&nbsp;start-up capital and make an individual planning but we monitor and give them technical advices in relation to the type of businesses they carry out or&nbsp;operate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SAVINGS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the objectives of the Adult Classes is to find out the interests or issues of the parents of the community. One of them is the difficulty to save the money for the future. Since January 2020, all parents are saving some money weekly to an account. They all have a personal objective. At the end of the year, this money will be returned to accomplish their objectives. One by one makes a bundle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>PIG PROJECT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each community has a pig project. They are responsible of taking care and feed them.
