“We listen to our community”

For the National Coordinator of the Bank Of Africa Foundation, in addition to its commercial component, society has a social component. And this imperatively involves listening to the expectations of the community by providing a solution. Something that prevailed in the construction of these three classrooms equipped with an average of 60 students per class in addition to the donation of teaching materials. “We have been approached by the authorities and the population of Darsalamy for educational infrastructure needs and the need is real. The state alone cannot respond to all requests. We have therefore decided to respond favorably to the request of the population, and this is effective today with the handing over of the keys”, confides to us Boureima Zerbo, communication officer of the Bank Of Africa Foundation.
