Haiti - Education : New vocational training center 19/06/2011 11:20:07
Mikaël Silvestre has personally funded 50% of this project estimated at 170.000 euros, the rest was collected from former teammates and charitable activities. "All my former teammates of Arsenal gave one day of work as well as two Chelsea players. We also held an auction in Rennes." Three other "Schools of Hope" have already been funded, Guinea, Niger and Senegal. "Education is the best way to fight against poverty. I had the chance to have a professional training, I try to give back a little of what I received in my childhood because I had the chance to attend school, learn to read, write and at the same time to be trained to football, things that many children in the world can not make [...] I became interested to the issue of the education of children with the birth of my first daughter and then I contacted UNICEF in early 2000. But with them, the action was sporadic, I was only a spokesperson, there, with the UNESCO I am fully invested in the projects" has declared Mikaël Silvestre.
