Foyer des Handicapes de Tanjomoha announced the arrival of the food in June. Foyer des Tanjomoha is a facility that provides a home for young people in difficult situations. It was established in 1986 by Father Vincent Carme with the intent to provide vocational training to young people with disabilities. It now provides a home for the orphans and the young outcasts of Madagascar as well.
