Qwarry supports education with school supplies in Madagascar

A Fragile Socio-Economic Context

Madagascar, one of the world's poorest countries, faces significant educational challenges. Nearly 75% of the population lives below the poverty line, and school infrastructure remains inadequate. The most vulnerable families struggle to provide basic school supplies for their children, increasing the risk of school dropout.

Qwarry’s Solidarity Action

To address these urgent needs, Qwarry organized a school supply distribution in Tana in partnership with the Akamasoa association and companies like Microsoft and Jellyfish. This initiative aims to improve access to education for young students by providing notebooks, pens, and other essential materials. Thanks to this collaboration, over 20,000 schoolchildren now receive tangible support.

The Essential Role of the Akamasoa Association

Since 1989, Akamasoa, founded by Father Pedro, has been assisting families in extreme poverty by offering comprehensive solutions, including housing, medical care, and schooling. This community-based model helps break the cycle of poverty by providing future opportunities for thousands of children. Akamasoa’s involvement in Qwarry’s project has ensured that aid is both targeted and effective.

The feedback from beneficiaries highlights the importance of this initiative. A teacher from Akamasoa expressed his gratitude, stating: "These supplies bring hope back to our students. They are motivated to continue their studies." The children themselves shared their joy in receiving new materials, reinforcing their commitment to education.

Partnerships for a Lasting Impact

Humanitarian efforts of this scale require cooperation between different stakeholders. Qwarry mobilized its partners to finance the operation and manage logistics. This approach highlights the importance of collaboration between the private sector and local associations in tackling social challenges. Together, these actors demonstrate that creating a meaningful impact on the ground is possible.

Results and Testimonials

Feedback from beneficiaries underscores the significance of this support. A teacher from Akamasoa shared his emotions, saying: "These supplies bring hope back to our students. They are motivated to continue their studies." The children, in turn, expressed their excitement about receiving new materials, further strengthening their dedication to learning.

Conclusion: A Promising Future Through Education

The initiative led by Qwarry and its partners demonstrates that access to quality education is a powerful driver of development. By supporting Akamasoa’s efforts, the company is helping to build a better future for upcoming generations while promoting values of solidarity and social responsibility.
