About Foyer du monde
“L'accueil était fabuleux. Foyer du Monde est une maison pour les parents, accueillant tout le monde. Quand l'enfant grandit, il s'en va mais sans oublier ses parents, les visitant, etc. C'est un organisme unique, nous adorons FDM (Foyer du Monde). Nous avons passé d'agréables moments au Foyer. J'ai vécu au Canada pendant 4 ans sans m'intégrer. C'est ici que j'ai appris le fonctionnement du système. C'était comme un voyage, où j'ai découvert beaucoup de choses. Je suis très satisfait de tout.”

“Je me suis habituée au Foyer, je me suis retrouvée ici. Il y a de la sécurité, on vit comme une famille. En peu de mots, je me sens bien si je pouvais encore rester une année je resterais, on se sent soutenu, il y a des gens autour de nous.”
