O Grove (Agenzia Fides) - The Spanish Association For a smile O Grove organizes a school material collection campaign with the goal of helping school children from Thiès in Senegal. It may be just a notebook, a pencil, a pen, a ruler or paper; everything is accepted, because in this way the children will have all the necessary things to start school properly, explain the organizers of the collection to Fides. Last year, thanks to this initiative, all the material needed for the school year were covered, and extra material was sent to other schools. (AP) (Agenzia Fides 07/06/2016)
