Anges du Soleil is a Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) founded in June 2014. The primary objective of the NGO is to contribute to building a better future for children and their families through comprehensive education. The initial projects focused on integrating children from their first year of preschool into French and English medium schools. The fundamental principles of the NGO are based on social diversity, cultural exchange, and the fight against discrimination.
