Mengjia School was rebuilt and opened in 2011 after it was
destroyed by the May 12th, 2008 earthquake. The magnitude 8
quake left Sichuan Province in mourning, with 69,000 dead,
18,000 missing and 10 million homeless. Our group soon
rallied round to provide local populations with emergency
assistance.
The AREVA Foundation is funding, alongside Secours Populaire
Français and the Chinese People's Association for
Friendship with Foreign Countries (CPAFFC), the installation
and equipping of a 150m² document center within the newly
rebuilt school complex. The site meets anti-seismic building
standards and has taken in 900 primary and middle school
students since September 2011.
