Tunisian Engineer Donates Valuable Property to SOS Children's Village

The president of the Tunisian SOS Children's Village Association, Mohamed Makdich, announced that a Tunisian engineer residing in the United States has donated a property valued at approximately one billion millimes to the association.

Property Details

The property, located on the Thyna road in Sfax, spans 850 m² and features two two-story houses, each with an area of around 300 m². These homes will be used to accommodate and house children under the care of SOS.

Donation Background

According to Mohamed Makdich, the donor, who recently visited Tunisia with his wife for the Mouled celebration, met with the association's officials in the presence of a lawyer to finalize the transfer procedures. This gesture fulfills the wish of his late mother, who had recommended donating the property as a charitable act rather than selling it.

Donor's Involvement

The president of SOS Children's Village also noted that the donor has been following the association's activities for over a year to ensure its transparency and good governance. This significant donation will enable the association to expand its services and provide a safe and supportive environment for the children in its care.
