Context
AND OBJECTIVES

In the wake of recent devastating seismic events, numerous schools have been severely damaged or destroyed, depriving thousands of children of their access to education. To address this urgent crisis, Morocco Foundation (MF) in collaboration with Association A Better Tomorrow (ABT), has received approval from the Academy of the Ministry of National Education (MEN) of the El Haouz region to undertake a school reconstruction project using concrete. The objective is to provide durable and secure infrastructure, essential for ensuring a conducive learning environment for the children’s development

Preliminary Steps :

Before initiating the reconstruction process, a thorough assessment was conducted in close collaboration with the Academy and Local Authorities.

This approach allowed for the identification of the specific priorities of this affected site. A construction expert was hired to perform an in-depth analysis of the locations and to develop a detailed reconstruction plan. The objective is to ensure that the new structures meet the highest safety standards while guaranteeing their optimal functionality.

Beneficiaries and Impacts :

The direct beneficiaries of this project are the 80 students and 3 teachers, the number will increase as more displaced families will start moving back. This school will regain a safe and suitable learning environment, essential for their academic and personal development. Beyond these direct beneficiaries, the families and the local community will also benefit from this project. Indeed, the continuity of education will strengthen community resilience and contribute to the overall development of the region.

The total estimated budget for the project is 700,000 MAD, encompassing the costs of construction, procurement of materials, transportation, installation of concrete classrooms, as well as expenses related to school equipment and winter packs for the students.

We are seeking your financial support to bring this essential project to life.

Your contributions will be crucial in rebuilding educational infrastructures, ensuring a safe learning environment, and providing the necessary equipment for the well-being of the students. Your generosity will have a direct impact on
the resilience of the affected communities and on the preservation of education as a
fundamental right for all.
