This month we offered a Generous Box to a non-profit organization who’s located a few steps away from our workshop: Convivial takes care of refugees throughout their journey, from their settlement to their social and professional integration in Belgium. Convivial is also raising awareness of the reality of the refugees in our modern world.
Silex focuses on leisure, social life and friendship for people with disabilities by creating artistic workshops, cultural visits, walks, holidays and sports.
Each year Silex organizes a sale of Christmas trees to ensure a significant part of their financing.
Generous Box offered at the “House of Wellbeing” in Charleroi. An initiative led by volunteers who work to make the journey of people with cancer less painful by offering them wellness care, creative activities and nutritional advice.

L’Essentiel wishes to participate to the flourishing of the disabled person and his family by proposing both activities and a place of reception for people with disabilities. Those activities are co-organized by people with disabilities themselves in a recreational and natural setting, and are intended for the entire population, able bodied and disabled.
The project dates back to the early 2000s. It originated in the mind of Doctor Michel Englebert, parent of a child with cerebral palsy. He often wondered what would become of his child. How can I guarantee him all the well-being, fulfilment and comfort that I want to give him on the day I will no longer be able or no longer there to take care of him?
Simple and relevant reflection that has also matured in the minds of patrons and other stakeholders from various backgrounds.
After long research on the ideal place, the Chaussée de Louvain site was acquired in 2008 and renovation work began in 2011. To federate such an ambitious project, a common solidarity was put in place, thanks to the active participation of individuals, families, associations, businesses, not to mention volunteers and the public sector.

“La Maison des Gais Lurons” is a reception and accommodation center for children in physical or psychological pain from disadvantaged backgrounds. The main objective is to provide these children and their families with a place of relaxation and rest during school holidays. Those who have so generously sponsored them over the past two years have allowed the Maison des Gais Lurons to build a splendid veranda which increases the space for games and meals in the event of rain or strong heat.
