There are many pressing needs in our world today. Our vision, our opportunity is to make a difference in the lives of children. Our mission established a boarding school that would provide safe housing, nourishment, and education for these children in dire need.

Over 11 years ago we began with the purchase of vacant land in M’bour Senegal that is now the site of an orphanage that can safely house and educate 80-100 of these children. With the help of many, we opened and inaugurated the boarding school with great success in 2022. Our teachers and staff are without equal, providing the highest quality education, nourishment, and care around the clock to ensure the best opportunities and quality of life for our kids. It is a happy environment and already the students are thriving!

We still have much more to do however and need your help! With your continued support, we can provide the critical, long-term essentials the boarding school needs. Funding for teachers, staff, nutritious meals, medical care, uniforms, secure housing, workshops to learn trades, recreation areas, agriculture studies and more is a constant challenge.

When you commit to supporting TFC, you are contributing to the fight against poverty and to creating a future filled with hope for those in dire need. Our boarding school is something real, something tangible and you will see the progress made and impact of your gift.
