Centre Fihavanana (Sisters of Good Shepherd) (located in Mahamasina area of central Tana) Madagascar’s underfunded education system is barely able to provide a basic primary education to pupils in mainstream schooling. For over a decade, MfM has sponsored the salaries of teachers at this day centre. Here 150 homeless and vulnerable children from the poor parts of Tana are given a hand up to help them rejoin society. They receive catch-up classes, medical care, social work support and hot meals. Teenaged girls also receive vocational training to help them to find employment. Activities for Tourists Visit for one and a half hour between 9 and 11 when you can appreciate children studying in class
