Many readers have contributed over the last couple of years to building a new school in Bamako, Mali. The local charity Via Sahel Enfants d'Afrique raised over 30000 euros to replace a school built from cardboard and corrugated iron.The school founded and run alone and without payment by a local woman provided education for hundreds of poor children each week, inspired Jean Marie Nosal and many supporters of Via Sahel to find a design, money and materials for the new school. Now it has opened and the children crowded in for the first day. Thank you all.
