Children Are the Future
We are a small non-profit organization made entirely of volunteers who believe that giving every child and young adult education and the opportunity to develop their potential is the key to breaking the vicious circle of poverty. We believe in people-to-people partnerships of solidarity and rely entirely on the generosity of people like you, and the work of reliable partner non-profit organisations in the field to achieve our objectives. Any donation we receive contributes directly to offer a child or young adult a better future.

About a year ago, CAF celebrated its 20th anniversary with an on-line event. And a jazz band was formed specifically for this ! The band kept working on its swing repertoire and made big progress to get ready for spring to arrive again.
So here we are today, with an extended set-up consisting of: a large saxophone section with Frederic Williaume (tenor), Olivier Marneffe (alto), Julian Delbrouck (baryton), a double bass (Pascal Meurisse), a drummer (Frederic Renard) and a new singer (Justine Moreau). They will bring you the music of Nat King Cole, Abbey Lincoln, Cole Porter, Irving Mills, … and other cool goodies.

Children are playing a carrom board game at Anbu Home (CET).The game of carrom is a tabletop game of Indian origin. It is an interesting combination of pool and air hockey, but highly accessible as an indoor family game, being compact and portable.The game features a square wooden board with four corner pockets and is played by flicking a “striker” disc with one’s fingers at the target pieces or carrom “men”. The goal of the game is to collect points by sinking the nine carrom “men” of your colour, plus the red “queen” piece, into the pockets before your opponent.The game features square wooden board with four corner pockets and is played by flicking a “striker” disc with one’s fingers at the target pieces or carrom “men”.
