The WFP, in collaboration with partners, provide food assistance to poor children to support their access to education. The centre receives about 927 children aged between 5 to 18 years old, whose parents earn around 2000 Madagascan Ariary ($1) a day. They also receive primary education, literacy tuition, scholastic adjustment, professional training and learn new crafts.
