Our projects
Association Education For All
Since 2007 we have supported AEFA — a project that builds and runs boarding houses for girls from the poorest and most remote mountainous regions of the High Atlas Mountains.

Association Scolaire Jeune Fille Rural - ASJFR
We co-manage a boarding house with 128 girls in Marrakech, who come from a wider geographical area, providing educational access to girls from some of the most underserved areas in the country.

Centre Malaika
We fund educational opportunities for 45 girls at Centre Malaika, an organisation dedicated to providing education, development, and social inclusion for children with Down syndrome.

Dar Moustaqbel comprises two student residences in Marrakech, providing safe housing and academic support to 80 young women from rural Morocco who are attending university.

Association Selah
We have launched a new collaboration with Association Selah in Rabat, following a successful pilot. The programme supports 38 vulnerable students from an orphanage with tutoring, mentoring, and university pathways - with girls prioritised to ensure equal access and opportunity.

2007
EFAM’s first project opened in 2007, giving access to secondary education for up to 36 girls. It was challenging to convince parents to send their daughters to us, but after only a few years we needed to expand to meet the demand for places!
2009
In September 2009, we opened a second boarding house in an even more remote area of the High Atlas 100 km from Marrakech in the town of Talaat n’Yacoub. This increased our intake to 36 more girls.
2010
In 2010 we built a new boarding house in Ouirgane.
2016
Since then we have opened 3 more boarding houses, including our recent one in Asni in 2016 and a large one in Talaat n'Yacoub with capacity for 50 girls.
2020
Our total number of boarding houses is 6 with a total of 250 girls.
2023
AEFA have been running these 6 boarding houses succesfully for 250 girls and 21 local staff until the earthquake that occurred in September 2023 destroyed 5 of the 6 boarding houses.
2024
4 temporary rental houses are currently providing temporary accommodation for the girls while the teams have been working hard managing the difficult situation that followed. Recovery operations are currently in place and planning for rebuilding of the damages houses has started.
2025
At the end of 2024, EFAM has expanded its mission to broaden its impact across Morocco, adding both ASJFR and Centre Malaika as supported projects.
These initiatives enable us to support more underprivileged girls from disadvantaged backgrounds, with a wider geographical reach.
2025
Dar Moustaqbel (“House of the Future”) runs two student residences in Marrakech, offering safe housing, academic support, and personal growth opportunities for disadvantaged young women pursuing university degrees. We help cover their essential education costs.
EFAM launches a new collaboration with Association Selah, an orphanage in Rabat, following a successful pilot. The programme supports vulnerable students with tutoring, mentoring, and university pathways.
You can support our recovery operations with a donation.
