King inaugurates USD-300K social center for children

On Monday the Moroccan King, Mohammed VI, visited Fez and dedicated a USD-310,000 social centre for children, set up by the Mohammed V Foundation for Solidarity.

Located in Ghassani Hospital, the social facility hosts 80 abandoned babies and offers them a set of services through various spaces, notably four dormitories with a capacity of 80 beds and a medical check-up room.

Also in Fez last Friday the sovereign inaugurated a USD-350,000 training centre for children, set up by the Mohammed V Foundation for Solidarity.

The facility will accommodate street children as well as children from poor areas. It will provide them with pedagogical studies and training programs aimed at enabling them to have right professional qualifications to join the job market. It will also provide medical care through an emergency medical unit.

The centre includes workshops of hairdressing, electricity and aesthetics, an IT room, two classrooms, a library, an administration and a room of first aid.
