ENSAN Aid (“ENSAN” in Arabic means human) ENSAN Aid was founded in 2014 with an endowment from Dr, Mahmoud Abdelwahab ,who wanted, after years of experience in the field of international development programs to devote his life to the humanitarian issues affecting Egypt and west Africa.
In 2017 Dr. Mahmoud visited Burkina Faso and met with Burkina Faso’s state ministers and President Kapoori’s adviser. Dr, Mahmoud  visited the villages of Burkina Faso and after the visit he decided to establish ENSAN AID/west Africa to work in 14 countries after he saw the suffering of children and women, where there is hunger, thirst, poverty and disease.
ENSAN Aid is a non-profit, non-governmental organization. Our work focuses on high-impact programs to address the pressing issues facing children, women and the disadvantaged in poorer communities to support sustainable development initiatives that seek to find solutions to the growth of the community while promoting the empowerment of girls, women, children and youth who are most in need.

One of the funny stories - after the visit of Dr. Mahmoud, the people decided to give him a gift, which was a chicken, according to the traditions, and not accepting it was considered unpleasant.. He said to the villagers, laughing, how could I take it with him on the plane -.. They are poor, but they are very generous.
