The "Maraudage" part

An association will collect the trays prepared and refrigerated for the occasion.
This association will go directly to Saint-Denis and distribute them in the early evening.
Of course, volunteers will be able to accompany them.

A few words about the 2 associations:

"If volunteering isn't paid for, it's not because it's worthless but because it's priceless." Sherry Anderson

Hope for the Indian Ocean

Administrative support: help with residence permit renewals, CAF applications, tax, and other paperless formalities.
Support for young parents: distribution of baby essentials.

Coup de Pouce

Founded more than 25 years ago by Thierry Tirel, the association finances meals for the most disadvantaged through solidarity actions:
Furniture donations: recovery and redistribution to families in need.
