Building the Educational Center Domenico Lorusso
The next project of our association involves the construction of an educational center with the aim of training young Togolese people to offer them employment opportunities and self-development. We also wish the Center to become the Association Headquarters in Togo (our association has been recognized by the Togolese government as an NGO) and our base there as well.
The center will be dedicated to Domenico Lorusso, our great supporter, who died tragically in May 2013.
Thanks to the "Ordine degli Ing. Potenza" we have now a 3D view of the project. With your help we hope that our plan will not be so ambitious.
