One of my favorite things to do while I lived in Bangou was go to the ‘Ecole Maternel’, the pre-school. Those kids are SO cute, and at the pre-school they are taught basic English and French, since usually in Bangou kids will first learn the local language named Bangou.
The education system being as bad as it is, kids need as much of a head start as possible to be successful. AADB wants to encourage more kids to make enroll and learn at the pre schools.
One day, I would LOVE for AADB to be able to start its own pre school, but with our limited budget, we at least wanted to make a small showing that we appreciate what they are doing. What do you guys think? Should AADB get more involved with the pre schools?

The lady in the green dress is Yvette Djiyou, Assistant Manager for AADB, and she was at this pre-school a few months ago giving these kids some school supplies from AADB.
