At just 12 years old, Valentine has flown from Dubai to Madagascar to share her time, her knowledge, and her heart with 219 young underprivileged students. While most kids her age are spending their school holidays relaxing, Valentine has chosen a path of purpose—spending her summer teaching French to children who need it most.

She arrived on July 2, 2025, greeted by bright smiles and curious eyes. The children, aged 5 to 15, had been eagerly awaiting her arrival. For many of them, French is more than just a language—it’s a bridge to opportunity, education, and a brighter future.

Day 2 is a huge success! Our youngest volunteer has already won the hearts of every child. Valentine has become the talk of the village—every child, every parent, and every passerby is speaking about her warmth, kindness, and energy.

Each day, Valentine leads playful, engaging lessons filled with songs, games, storytelling, and laughter. Her warm and friendly spirit makes learning fun and approachable. She teaches not just with words, but with heart—with compassion and creativity.

In just a short time, the children are STARTING TO SAY NEW WORDS , excited to show what they’ve learned, and more connected than ever. Though Valentine is only a few years older than some of them, she has become a true role model—someone they admire and trust.

There are no traditional classrooms or high-tech tools here. What makes the real difference is human connection—and that is exactly what Valentine brings every single day.

Merci, Valentine, for reminding us that age does not define impact. Your time, your heart, and your spirit are a gift to every child you’ve touched this month—and to all of us who are lucky enough to witness your journey.

Keep going, Valentine. You are changing lives, one smile and one word at a time.
