Tandana Foundation

The Tandana Foundation collaborates with communities in Mali’s Bandiagara District on initiatives that address community priorities.  The AllPeopleBeHappy foundation has provided a Project Grant of $9,477 to the Tandana Foundation for the creation of two school gardens, at the secondary school of Ondogou and the primary school of Saredina, Mali.  These gardens will permit students to earn income with which they can purchase school supplies and first aid supplies, will enrich educational experiences and nutrition for students.  The Tandana Foundation will help the students elected management committees to lead their garden efforts, will train these committees along with teachers and parent representatives, will provide fences to protect the gardens from livestock, and will provide seeds, fruit tree seedlings, and tools to get the gardens started.   (www.tandanafoundation.org)
