BWEF Students

BWEF is a small humanitarian organization led by Frederic Eckhard who founded the NGO in 2009. Every year a number of students from impoverished backgrounds have been selected and funded during their university studies. Besides paying the tuition fees, BWEF als provides help with computers, housing, transport, lunch money, hygiene and health care.  All efforts of BWEF aim to build a network of young educated Burkina women so that they, in turn, can help other Burkina girls.
