Oiseau Bleu de N'Zérékoré Charity Car Boot Sale

A charity car boot sale for the children of Guinea

The Oiseau Bleu de N'Zérékoré association, founded in January 2005 by Marie Niambalamou Kolou, originally from Guinea and living in the Hautes-Pyrénées for several decades, organizes this annual charity car boot sale. All profits are devoted to funding a reception and accommodation center for children in extreme poverty in the village of N'Zérékoré in Guinea. The association, accredited for Youth and Popular Education since 2016, pursues educational and health objectives for disadvantaged children.
