3. A SOCIAL MISSION

The KINTUADI association will join LYSD for

this basketball week in Togo.

KINTUADI i.e. "solidarity" (in Angola dialect ) is

an association aimed at promoting physical

activities in developing countries through the

creation of sports facilities of high quality.

KOUVE VILLAGE

Kouvé is a village of 30,000 people located 2 hours from Lome, the capital of Togo. Six principal ethnic groups - Ewe, Ouatchi, Adja, Kabyè, Fon, Awoussa - all dwell harmoniously together.

The village is undergoing a steady but gradual transformation in human development, supported by the youth of its inhabitants. In Kouvé alone, we can count no less than 22 primary schools, 5 Junior high schools and 2 Senior High Schools.

Oddly enough, as regards leisure, the village has little to no activity to occupy its young populace. The only sports facility available is a soccer field.

By providing to the village with a quality basketball playground, KINTUADI will enable youth to practice basketball and diversify their interests.
