A bright future for children

Underprivileged children often have only one wish,
they want to go to school and that is made possible by ;
Les Résidences du Soleil.

Résidence Du Soleil
In the heart of Southern France, where the sun always shines, lies a special place called Les Résidences du Soleil. These beautiful holiday villas, located in the rolling wine landscape of Languedoc-Roussillon, are more than just a holiday destination. They are a source of hope and a ray of sunshine for many children in Senegal, West Africa, thanks to the collaboration with JEMODA Foundation.

JEMODA Foundation, based in Senegal, is a non-profit organization dedicated to the most disadvantaged children. The foundation provides education to children living below the poverty line and protects them from exploitation and abuse. In addition, the foundation provides medical support to families living below the poverty line and financial support to small, qualified schools. Les Résidences du Soleil, known for their beautiful holiday villas, contribute to this noble mission. The villas are owned by people who have carefully furnished their property to offer guests an optimal holiday. But their involvement goes beyond just providing a wonderful holiday experience. They strive to make a difference in the world by supporting the JEMODA Foundation. This collaboration between Les Résidences du Soleil and JEMODA Foundation is a beautiful example of how businesses and non-profit organizations can work together to bring about positive changes in the world. By working together, they can bring a ray of sunshine into the lives of children who need it most.

So the next time you stay in one of the beautiful villas of Les Résidences du Soleil, think of the radiant smile of a child in Senegal who can go to school thanks to your support. Because every ray of sunshine counts, and together we can make a world of difference.

Since 2014, Les Résidences du Soleil has proudly committed itself to the education of children.
After your stay at Les Résidences du Soleil, you will receive a survey form about your holiday experience. Your feedback is invaluable to us. For each completed and submitted survey, Les Résidences du Soleil donates €10 to JEMODA Foundation.

These donations are carefully used to provide additional educational opportunities to children who would otherwise not get this chance. Your contribution helps us make a difference in their lives.

Khadi and Mohammed Aidara: 
From the depths of poverty to the beacon of hope, all thanks to Les Résidences Du Soleil.

Khadi and Mohammed Aidara are part of a family with six children. Their parents, Moustapha and Binta, are unfortunately unemployed. This situation has forced them to live in a borrowed house with their children, who range in age from 3 months to 15 years. However, this story focuses on Khadi and Mohammed.

The house consists of only two rooms: one for the children and one for the parents. They do not have access to running water and the nearest public well is 500 meters away.

Moustapha, who himself comes from a poor family, has only learned the Quran from a Marabout, a traditional practice among poor families who cannot afford the costs of regular education. Binta, also from a disadvantaged family, has never had the chance to go to school.

The family has to get by on an average monthly income of less than 70 euros, which Moustapha usually earns by reciting prayers from the Quran for sick people.

Khadi, born in 2010, is a cheerful girl, although she is a bit insecure, probably because her parents do not let her play on the street. Mohammed, born in 2005, is a cheerful, mischievous boy, but not a fighter. He regularly visits the JEMODA Foundation to play with other children, with Stratego being his favorite game.

What makes Khadi and Mohammed special is that they already speak French quite well, despite their parents only speaking their native language, Wolof. They are the focus of this story, symbolizing hope and resilience in the face of adversity. Their journey is a testament to the power of education and the human spirit. Despite their challenging circumstances, they continue to learn, grow, and dream of a brighter future. Their story is a reminder that every child deserves a chance to thrive, regardless of their background. And with the right support and opportunities, they can indeed reach their full potential.

All of this is made possible by Les Résidences Du Soleil. Known for its beautiful holiday villas in Southern France, Les Résidences Du Soleil is more than just a holiday destination. It is a beacon of hope for children like Khadi and Mohammed. For each completed survey form after a stay in one of their villas, Les Résidences Du Soleil donates €10 to the JEMODA Foundation. These donations are used to help children like Khadi and Mohammed. They now receive high-quality education, including all necessary materials. They receive tutoring, as their parents are often illiterate. In case of illness, the children receive medical assistance and medication. Thanks to Les Résidences Du Soleil, Khadi and Mohammed now have a chance at a better future. They are living proof that every action, no matter how small, can make a world of difference.
