(CS) Utopia S.A. has donated over 2,900 euros to the SOS Villages d'Enfants Monde, a member of the SOS Children's Village International organisation.
Celebrating the opening weekends of the films “La guerre des boutons” and “La nouvelle guerre des boutons” in September, one euro for each ticket sold for the two movies was donated to the cause.
To the proceeds of the ticket sales Utopia S.A. added a donation, making up a total sum of 2,982 euros.
The money will go to projects by SOS Villages d'Enfants Monde in the Horn of Africa, benefitting children and families in the drought stricken region.
In 2003 the Luxembourg association financed the building of a children's village in Harar, Ethiopia, as well as supporting another village in Gode, Ethiopia. The donated money will support the organisation costs of food and medical aid.
More than 12 million people, including two million children, are currently suffering from famine in what is the worst drought in six decades to hit Ethiopia, Somalia and Kenya.
