Families gathered around food supplies during the Catherine Kühn Foundation’s solidarity initiative.

On 28 October 2023, the Catherine Kühn Foundation provided food and material assistance to displaced families and families in need in the Kpendjal and Kpendjal-Ouest prefectures, in the Savanes region.

Faced with insecurity, these families had been forced to leave their homes or interrupt their usual activities. This situation weakened their livelihoods and their ability to feed themselves.

Meeting essential needs

The donations included maize, rice, pasta, vegetable oil and mats. They were intended to meet immediate needs and ease daily life for affected households.

Initiated by Manuella M. Santos through the Catherine Kühn Foundation, this solidarity initiative was carried out locally by a delegation, in the presence of local authorities.
