On February 28th 2009 it took place the official opening of the second lot of six classrooms of the primary school in Boditti, Ethiopia that Butterfly Foundation is building thanks to the support of individuals and companies very sensitive to the great value of education in this Country as in other third world areas.

In the frame of the new school construction program in third world Countries, thanks to the financial support given by the agents and head office of Aurora Assicurazioni S.p.a., the Butterfly foundation has recently completed the turnkey construction of a secondary school in Kaungh-to village, in Southern Shan State which can accommodate 210 pupils

This school, built in 1988 thanks to a missionary Priest, today welcomes approximately sixty Indios children. They are taught notions of agriculture and livestock care, and the goal of the basic instruction is the preservation of the indigenous language and culture. Recently new classrooms, dormitories, and a refectory have been built, thanks to the savings of Sibylle and Renato. There is still much to accomplish..
