Empowering the children of Moulé, Tiédia, and Djounkargo by strengthening a local elementary school.

Located in the south western region of Bukina Faso in West Africa, the Moulé-Tiédia Elementary School is currently the home of 185 children (106 girls and 79 boys) between the age of 6-15.  The children are from from the villages of Moulé, Tiédia, Djounkargo and the farming hamlets to the south before the river. Before the school was created, children from these villages travelled some 20 km (12 miles) round-trip per day to reach the Diébougou schools, for those lucky enough to attend. 

The Moulé-Tiédia Elementary School was built in October 1996. It is located in the Diébougou commune. The school has not been renovated or refurbished since its creation almost 30 years ago.

It will also provide school uniforms and school supplies for the students.
