       A carpentry workshop offers a group of about 20 young people in difficulty a skill training that is well adapted to their profile.

       The training is led by two Filipino monitor-carpenters and a teacher who teaches a basic skills review course of writing, reading and calculation.

       The training allows the students, through the completion of a variety of exercises, to master the techniques and tools of the carpentry shop while continuing their social stabilisation process in order to prepare themselves for the realities of the working world.

       Upon completing their apprenticeship, the students are able to produce professional pieces of furniture and can then seek real employment with the aid of the foundation.

      Starting16 years old, the children having finished all the three levels of the training formation can enter the "production level", while searching for a job outside the foundation. The furnitures (professional quality and finishing) are sold for the profit of the foundation. Check out the catalogue
