The “A Tree for a Child”<br />
foundation recently carried<br />
out a renovation project on<br />
the Mukdahan school<br />
situated in the North East<br />
of the country. The school<br />
has also received various<br />
new pieces of equipment<br />
over the past two years,<br />
thanks to the support of<br />
the foundation. The latest<br />
project was overseen by<br />
the teams of the Pullman<br />
Khon Kaen and resulted in<br />
the renovation of the<br />
school’s canteen and<br />
toilets. The funds collected<br />
by the foundation come<br />
from donations from Accor<br />
Thailand employees.<br />
• Throughout the year,<br />
Accor Services Venezuela<br />
has contributed in the<br />
renovation of 16 "Maisons<br />
de l'alimentation" (Nutrition<br />
houses) in Maracaibo and<br />
in training 80 welfare<br />
workers. This action was<br />
carried out as part of the<br />
caring company programme<br />
“Alimentation et Equilibre”<br />
(Nutrition and Balance),<br />
through which Accor<br />
Services contributes to<br />
improving the nutrition and<br />
health conditions of<br />
Venezuelans.<br />
• A group of volunteers<br />
from Accor Services<br />
Venezuela visited the<br />
“Obra Social de la Madre y<br />
el Niño” institution to<br />
distribute toys and food<br />
stuffs. The “Obra social de<br />
la Madre y el Niño” is an<br />
institution for single,<br />
teenage mothers in<br />
extreme poverty. At the<br />
institution, the young<br />
women and their children<br />
are educated and trained,<br />
during classes and<br />
workshops, to enable them<br />
to integrate the job market.
