Togo: more than 1,500 children reintegrated into families by ANGE since 2001

Promoting children's rights and ensuring their safety in Togo is the mission assigned to it by the NGO ANGE ( Friends for a New Generation of Children in Togo ), which is celebrating its 2021st anniversary on May 20, 2013. It was through a thanksgiving and thanksgiving mass at the Sacré Coeur Junior parish in Lomé that the NGO ANGE kicked off the festivities.

Created in 2001, ANGE works for the protection and promotion of the rights and interests of children in street situations, the care and support of these children who are victims of abuse and trafficking. Each year, approximately 900 children are cared for and monitored regularly, including at least 400 in school and more than 1,500 children reintegrated into their families.

After 20 years of actions on the ground, ANGE has taken at least 1,500 children off the street and out of prison and then integrated them into the social environment as fulfilled men and women. Among other results obtained, it educates at least 800 children per year from Lomé to Cinkassé, and sends more than 34 young people to vocational training. The latter are currently self-employed. It should also be noted that several children who have left the street are now abroad thanks to the support of the NGO ANGE according to Gabriel AMOUZOU, Executive Director of the said organization.

This positive assessment was obtained thanks to the five action centers set up by the NGO, which are: the reception center " in my father's house ", the reception center "My Refuge", the street project, the juvenile brigade project and the development projects in Tchékpo Dédékpoè.


The NGO ANGE works in partnership with the General Directorate of Child Protection (DGPE) in Togo, UNICEF Togo, FONDACIO, RESAEV Togo and RELUTET. In addition to this Eucharistic celebration, other activities are planned to make 2021 brighter for children.
