Milk missions
Milk missions
For more than 20 years these humanitarian operations allow to distribute every day either a glass of milk (33 cl), or a milky porridge of millet, sorghum or groundnut to more than thousand sick or underfed African and Malagasy children.This milk is distributed within various clinics, health centers and hospitals.
In 2011, ASF participated in the financing and assumed the cost of transportation and distribution of 5 tons of milk powder and nutritional products for Madagascar and Togo, as 10 tons for Tchad.
The milk missions are realized with the support of the National Federation of Milk Producers and the financial support of several partners of which the Ordre de Malte France, the Rotary Club, the association EGEE in Côte d’Or (France) and the Villebon- sur-Yvette town hall.
