Drisia, a student benefiting from the EPICOOP association:

“I think it's a great commitment, a nice action for everyone. For all the schools, for the close people, for all the students. Sometimes we are in situations where we are not necessarily aware of everything happening. We were very well received, the place is nice, you guys are great, so very nice action.”

Felipe Guegano, head of communication, Rachida Hammouti, volunteer of the association and Louis Taboutin president of EPICOOP:

“We are EPICOOP, the association of PSL University. We distribute 270 packages per month, as you can see right here. The distribution usually takes place on Tuesdays from 16:00 to 18:00. We also organize a lot of events for and with the students, like for example next month, Christmas with EPICOOP, which we hope will go well, in a nice atmosphere, with a lot of gifts.”
