MAINS TENDUES 82
Working together for a better world.
When we started TAGonline we realised we could help local charities and chose Alzheimer's 82, Cancer Support, Liberté des Anes, Via Sahel Enfants d'Afrique
We also helped to rehome local dogs with Truffes et Moustaches, Kathy and Maeva.
Around three years ago we began sending clothes, sleeping bags and tents to Calais and raising money for friends who were going up building chalets.
Then just over two years ago our own refugees arrived here and we started raising money for them.
With TAG we always asked for cheques to be made directly to the associations
Up till now we have not had our own association to be able to do this but one needs to have transparency of where the money we now work hard to collect is going.
One of the reasons we have created Mains Tendues 82 with a committee and importantly a treasurer.
Our hopes are to help our local refugees and others in the area in need.
After being able to give 100 euros to each boy at Verfeil, ( 18 of them) we were delighted to be able to give 300 euros to the local enfants/ junior school in Varen before Christmas.
We start 2018 with a healthy balance even after we have paid expenses for housing, feeding and transport for 3 young men who passed winter in the warmth here with us, rather than on the streets of Toulouse.
