Summary of the plan of action

•  Launch this website which is intended to be a communication tool between the Non Governmental Humanitarian Organization ASDA-ADDA and its sponsors/members. Our organization's goal is to operate in West Africa to improve education and living conditions among extremely underprivileged populations.
•  Report the work undertaken and to be carried out.
•  Collect the needed funds to conduct "onsite” assistance.
•  Legitimize our action with the Malian authorities so as to be accredited as a Non Governmental Humanitarian Organization.
•  Spend all the needed time in Mali to achieve our goals, report and make sure that the collected funds are properly used.
