The founder of the institution opened the ceremony with a speech followed by a video presenting the vision of the foundation and their various activities. Following him the mayor, Jean Marc Yacé did not hesitate to congratulate and encourage these young people dedicated to helping as many young Africans as possible to evolve and develop in their various fields. “This initiative interests me particularly because it was one of my first actions as mayor. I wanted to help around fifty young people and several entrepreneurs to develop, unfortunately they all failed due to lack of training. Since then, I have attached particular importance to the training of young people, ”he declared. He also took the opportunity to show them his support by offering them the sum of five (5) million CFA francs.
This center built on an area of 600 m2 includes 3 learning rooms, 4 offices, 1 multimedia rooms available for learners. Several training courses are offered in addition to learning values and ethics at the professional level. The training will be given over a period of 2 months. The center also intends to help young people to find their vocation through appropriate methods and to integrate them after training.
According to the testimonies of several volunteers, the foundation not only instilled in them values but it also allowed them to create relationships which led to opportunities in their various fields. The construction of this center is therefore for them a big step forward because it will allow to continue and perfect the works of the foundation.
