AS Monaco has wrapped up its summer village on a high note of generosity, handing over a substantial collection of school supplies to local charity Les Enfants de Frankie. The donations, gathered since July 18, will help equip more than 300 children from families in need across the region ahead of the September 1st school year.
School bags, notebooks, pencils, paper, erasers, and even glue sticks filled several crates thanks to the contributions of Rouge & Blanc supporters who took part in the initiative. The club, a longtime supporter of Les Enfants de Frankie, organised the collection as part of its wider summer programme at Port Hercule, which featured signing sessions with the club’s stars, football tournaments and family-friendly activities.
On Friday, AS Monaco general manager Thiago Scuro presented the donations to Francien Giraudi, founding president of Les Enfants de Frankie, alongside Axelle Amalberti Verdino, Monaco’s deputy mayor for Entertainment and Leisure.
“Whenever we can give something back to society, especially for children and education, it’s important to do so,” said Scuro. “It’s a pleasure for AS Monaco to collaborate once again with Les Enfants de Frankie on this initiative.”
Giraudi expressed gratitude for the effort: “We are very pleased with this result. Thank you to AS Monaco, with whom we’ve carried out joint actions for many years, and to all the donors. This initiative will help equip over 300 children for the start of the school year.”
