Official visit of partners to the A.S.J.F.R boarding house

Together

Supporters

None of these 311 baccalaureate holders would exist without a chain of trust: service clubs, universities, foundations, institutions and patrons.

The founding club

Club Soroptimist fondateur – Marrakech, where it all began

It was the Club Soroptimist fondateur – Marrakech that championed the project from the very beginning, around the goal of eliminating school dropout among rural girls. Since then, the Soroptimist friendship has radiated: Fréjus-Saint-Raphaël, Léman (Switzerland), Dresden and Rosenheim (Germany), Agadir, as far as the Philippines.

Honorary patrons

Two women, exemplary loyalty

Mrs SALWA ANDALOUSSI and Mrs SARA RIGGS support the association with remarkable constancy: their monthly or annual contributions rank among the most significant the boarding school receives. Through their sustained loyalty, they offer our boarders far more than financial support: the certainty that, year after year, someone is watching over their studies. The association expresses its deep and respectful gratitude to them.

Institutions

The support of institutions

The Wilaya of Marrakech, the Commune of Marrakech, the Entraide Nationale and the CDRT Tensift support the association's mission and its outreach to girls from rural areas.

National initiative

Nissaa'Gen Tech: our girls enter the world of digital and AI

Launched on 11 June 2026 in Casablanca by the Ministry of Digital Transition and Administrative Reform and Dell Technologies, in the presence of Minister Amal El Fallah Seghrouchni, the Nissaa'Gen Tech programme opens a structured pathway for girls from rural areas of the Marrakech region towards scientific studies and careers in digital technology and artificial intelligence. Our boarders take part — discovery workshops, mentoring, hackathons — alongside institutions and companies that believe in their potential. The association thanks the Minister and Dell Technologies for placing rural girls at the heart of the 'Morocco Digital 2030' strategy.
