The equipment of the centres, schools and workshops in Sam Sam is essential since training is eminently practical. Only if they have the necessary tools and equipment can the young people be trained in techniques and skills that will enable them to improve their future.
Equipment varies according to the training:
- The sewing workshop requires sewing machines, dummies, fabrics, and haberdashery.
- The catering workshop demands cookware, crockery, cutlery, electrical appliances (oven, fridge, freezer), foodstuffs, etc.
- The carpentry workshop needs a carpenter’s bench, sawing machine, power and hand tools, wood, varnishes, etc.
- The dispensary requests material for setting up a laboratory, nursing material, etc.
Flooding during the rainy season floods schools and centres. They need regular maintenance to drain the water and allow young people to continue their education.
