A young Senegalese living in the suburbs of Dakar, she graduated from high school in 2007. She went on to train as an executive assistant, and at the same time completed a secretarial and communications internship at an American professional training academy specializing in graphic arts.

Claude is also deeply involved in community work, volunteering in sustainable development programs and the fight against malnutrition and poverty. As a result, she has developed a project to provide a solution – her solution – to ease the plight of her fellow citizens: A-Free-Cana

To give substance to her project, Claude enrolled in Synapse’s Empacto program, for free training in entrepreneurship. After 3 months of modular training, Claude benefited from 400 hours of free incubation. This incubation will enable him to fine-tune his project, have a suitable workspace and personalized support.

A Free-Cana is a catering project which aims to promote local products and also effectively contribute to the fight against malnutrition among children from underprivileged backgrounds.
