Brava: Associação Amigos das Escolas da Brava aims to provide Basic Education schools with better conditions

The leader of the Associação Amigos das Escolas da Brava based in the United States announced today that the organization is working to provide the basic schools on the island with better conditions for students and staff.

Speaking to Inforpress, Elígio Burgo said that the association held a snack at the end of October, which is a tradition in Brave held every year on November 1, and the association, to remember the emigrants of this tradition, organizes a similar action in the US, where funds are channeled to support schools on Brava and other social supports.

According to the same source, the association is a non-profit organization whose aim is to raise funds and donations to offer some dignity and better conditions to basic schools in Brave, where this year, he stressed that the collected funds will be used in the acquisition of new staff for schools and also for painting in needy schools.

At the moment, he added that they are waiting for some 'feedback' from the school delegation on the island, in the sense that they have the proper authorization to be able to start preparations, as the association intends to carry out these works still in the December holidays.

Since 1994, the date of its creation, the association has been supporting the island's schools with materials and equipment for students, as well as some elderly people and needy families in partnership with the Municipality of Brava, regardless of which political party is in the lead, because, as Elígio Burgo said, the aim is always to achieve better results for the good of Braveense society.
