ISANABA ( a French association), created in tribute to Ismael Dakyo, who died on October 18th, 2008 of a cardiac arrest, during a basketball competition in Saint-Laurent-de-Brèvendent, Le Havre. ISANABA donated a sports complex to the village of Sanaba, and still contributes to the development of the village in association with ADCS, a local association. The Katiou Foundation built two high school classrooms within the public secondary school. It enables pupils, specially young girls to pursue school in Sanaba, to avoid travelling 50 km daily. The nearest high school is in Dédougou. ISANABA and Manos Unidas (a Spanish association) built the remaining two classrooms. Each classroom can welcome up to 80 pupils.
