Christine and her husband, Christian, are two volunteers in the Brabant province in Belgium. Through the Parrain-Ami association, which literally means “mentor-friend”, they have become a sponsor for little Oséane. She spends one weekend per month at their house in the countryside, in the company of their family.
Parrain-Ami’s activities are aimed at helping children from disadvantaged families. One weekend a month may not sound like a long time…but as you will see through Christine’s film, it represents a highly enriching experience for the host family and the children alike.
Off we go to Belgium for a weekend with the family!
Parrain-Ami is supported by the BNP Paribas Foundation’s Coup de Pouce Programme.
