As part of its commitment to disadvantaged populations (orphans, homeless, sick children...), the Volontarious association is organising, on the occasion of International Children's Day, the second edition of "Volontarious Got Talent", at the Dar Al Atfal Sidi Bernoussi orphanage. An action that is inspired by the humanitarian vocation of this association which works in favour of the destitute. "As its name suggests, the second edition of Volontarious Got Talent will include an artistic competition for the benefit of the orphans of Dar Al Atfal Bernoussi, like those that take place in famous shows," explain the members of the association. A great joy and a moment of escape for the residents of the orphanage, since a colourful programme has been concocted for them. Indeed, several celebrities will attend this purely humanitarian action. Singers, actors, Dekka marrakchia, athletes, etc., will be part of it. Better still, and for more animation, the association also called on a DJ and a clown. "Obviously, plenty of other surprises await the children and will fill their hearts with joy," assure the members of Volontarious. "Sponsorship can be done by volunteers for the benefit of a child or a group of children. Summer clothes for the holidays, especially sweaters and shorts, sandals or trainers... are the items that the orphans will need the most," specifies the association. Through this action, Volontarious is also launching an appeal to volunteers to sponsor 100 orphans from Dar Al Atfal of Sidi Bernoussi. It should be remembered that the Volontarious association, although it only started its activity in August 2012, is very dynamic. Indeed, it is not its first attempt. It already has several activities to its credit. As an example, we can cite the "Ftour of the heart, edition 1" for the benefit of the residents of the Ennassim retirement home, organised on the occasion of the month of Ramadan, the "Kolna N'âyedo" action for the benefit of the orphans of the Annour centre on the occasion of Eid Al Fitr, or even "Vamos a la playa", a football tournament for the benefit of Volontarious volunteers and children from disadvantaged neighbourhoods. The homeless of the city of Casablanca are not left out, since two different actions were dedicated to them, namely the action devoted to the month of Ramadan "Ftour of the heart" and the "Dress me, edition 2" action. An association of heart: Volontarious is a non-profit humanitarian association, basing its activities on volunteering and voluntary work. The association has a humanitarian, social, and cultural goal. Its action consists of providing and developing direct humanitarian assistance in such a way as to promote the emergence of projects that respect everyone's rights. Volontarious develops its action in particular in favour of the citizens of the city of Casablanca, but it also works everywhere in Morocco, through visits and support to needy, destitute, and sick people or those living in precariousness.
