Fundraising for The Empire Street Children Centre

Empire of the Children

Every night, homeless children in Senegal sleep rough on the streets where they face constant danger and exploitation.

Based in Senegal's capital city, Dakar, the Empire of the Children is a former open air cinema. The building has been renovated and now takes in vulnerable young boys aged 5 to 16 years of age, offering them accommodation, educational and social support.

Join Demba Ba and friends and find out more about this fantastic project!
