Donations

Financial donations

The Lycee MLK is a young and dynamic project which started off with private funds. Thanks to numerous patrons and acts, we were able to raise funds to continue the advancement of the campus (construction of dormitories for 100 students). Our ambition does not stop here since we hope to grow in order to welcome more students in a suitable infrastructure. This is why we seek, in parallel to sponsorships, donations that will be fully invested in the Lycée. Find details on current projects.

Just like sponsorships, financial transfers are managed by the VDE Organization which has a branch in Switzerland, in France, and in Burkina Faso depending on the currency of your donation. VDE Switzerland and VDE France are recognised as being of public utility. Your donation can thus be deducted from your taxes depending on the amount. For more detailed information, please contact VDE Switzerland (M. Sternberg) or VDE France (M. Zbinden).
