More information
The history of the Foundation Maisha began in 1995 when father Johan Vanden Bussche and father Eric Meert founded together with a motivated team of laics the Maisha Foundation to help the youngsters who had ended their professional training and had difficulties to find a decent job. It is an association for ex-students of all centers "Oeuvres Maman Marguerite". Ex-students are organized in work groups, so the Maisha Foundation doesn’t lose touch with them and gets direct feedback from the target group. We continue education and training of the target group through regular monthly meetings and reunions and give substantial support to those who don’t succeed in finding a job and reintegrating into society. The committee assists to overcome the many difficulties the young graduates are faced with after being on their own feet again. In some cases, the support can eventually lead to a small credit, in order to overcome the first hurdles.
