The Children’s Education Program

The Association Zanaka Gasy Koliona is operated by Jimmy and Nuru Rasolasoa. The mission of the Association is to make education available to Malagasy children who’s parents cannot afford the tuition and fees to send them to school.

The Jared Prescott Trust began our support for this worthy cause in 2024.

The cost to send a child to school for a year is only$120.

Jimmy and Nuru live in Cholet, France where Jimmy is a practicing neurologist. Jimmy and Nuru were born and raised in Madagascar and plan to return there to live at some point in the future. Their goal is to carry and expand the important work they have started.

Each child that is added to the program is assigned a mentor for the school year. The mentors are trusted volunteers and each mentor provides their group with school supplies for the year and sees that their tuition and fees are paid. They also track how the children are doing through the year.

The cost to send a child to school for a year is only $120 us dollars. The needs are great and the cost is small.

please help by sending as many deserving children to
