GET TO KNOW US
About our foundation
Project Help Madagascar was founded in 2019 in Oslo, Norway. Over the years, we have managed to help build schools by collecting donations from our beloved supporters from all over the world.
What We Do
We are working hard to spread awareness of the situation in Madagascar and collect donations which will be directly sent to our close friend, Project Responsible and the Mayor of Inanantonanana, Elie Jean Rakotonirina. The money will be used to buy resources and equipment needed to build necessary facilities.
Although education in Madagascar has been our main priority, we hope to expand our projects and help the locals as much as possible.
