"Les premiers jours, tout le monde était focus sur : qui est en vie ? Je connais des gens qui ont marché jusqu'à Mamoudzou ou Iloni [environ 5h de marche] pour trouver un point de connexion et rassurer leur famille." - Yassira, habitante de Tsingoni #Mayotte #Cyclone #Chido

After such a traumatic experience, free Wi-Fi open to all provides significant psychological support for those affected. TSF is carrying out mobile connectivity operations in disaster-stricken communities on the north and north-west coasts of the island for 200 persons / day.
