This week we are presenting to you the association “Le Chaînon”. Their goal is to help women in need by hosting them as long as they need, to give them free meals and to help reinsert them into the world. They do so by helping them find a job in an equalitarian place.  They also shed light to the inequalities women suffer everyday such as: violence or living conditions. 

In order to have the necessary funds to host those women in need they have a shop on saint Laurent street, they sell merchandise that is given by a big variety of donations like clothes, furniture, sport equipment, hygiene products, books, decoration… So, to help them you could make a donation, or even buy in their shop!
