Summary About 100,000 boys attending Quranic schools in Senegal (the Talibe) are doomed to terrible living conditions every day. They are forced to beg in the streets for meals for themselves and very often also for money for their Quran teachers. According to the International Labour Organization, such street begging reflects one of the worst forms of child labour. Maison de la Gare is a non-governmental organization that was founded in 2007 and operates in the Senegalese city of Saint-Louis. It provides support to the Talibe, both to those who go out to the streets every day between their Quran lessons to beg for food and / or money, and those who have escaped from their schools and now live on the street. The mission of the organisation is to help children who are forced to beg and are abused by their teachers (marabouts) from illegal Quran schools.
