We want to explain step by step the evolution of the construction project and Endowment for Kabounkout Maternity. We encourage you to follow this blog.

WHY A MOTHERHOOD IN KABOUNKOUT?

In Kabounkout they have a health Centre since 2016, the result of the collaboration with the KASSUMAY FOUNDATION. The condition that puts the government of Senegal to recognise the center as such, is that next to it there is a maternity.

At the time, the administration provides the approval and provides the health complex with a qualified nurse, a health technician and a midwife, taking charge of salaries and the Ministry of Health facilitates the provision of medicines.

The functions of the Kassumay Foundation are to provide technical and organizational support, financial resources and control the implementation of the project. This task is carried out jointly with our counterpart in Senegal, constituted by the Association CPAS (Centre of Agricultural and Social promotion); Through the signing of an agreement.
