Five days after the disappearance of Charity, 6 years old, who fell in the Oise between Pontoise and Saint-Ouen-l'Aumône, solidarity is organized.
Many inhabitants of both banks are scanning the cold waters in the hope of finding a clue to find the little girl who has not been heard from since Wednesday evening.
Via the Facebook group “You know that you come from Pontoise”, a former resident of Cergy-Pontoise launched a fundraiser to help the family of the missing girl.
“I grew up in Cergy, in the former Croix-Petit,” explains this father of three, touched by this tragedy.
Pontoise, the banks of the Oise, is my childhood and my adolescence.
Little Charity is a child from my house.
» From Nantes where he is now based, the thirty-year-old was “appalled to see the quantity of accusatory and racist messages and comments”.
“Support Charity’s parents”
So he wanted to “do something to support Charity’s parents”.
Stéphane Girard increased the number of exchanges via social networks to contact the father of the child and obtain his agreement to create a pot intended to help the deprived family.
At 4 p.m. this Monday, he had “collected 945 euros”.
The “Charity Fosu” prize pool is open on Leetchi.com until May 20.
Charity, 6 years old, and her little sister, 5 years old, slipped from the bank of the Oise, near Saint-Ouen-l'Aumône, late Wednesday afternoon.
Although the youngest adult was quickly rescued by a passing Argenteuil firefighter, Charity disappeared.
Since then, the extensive search system, including a drone and three firefighter zodiacs as well as a gendarmerie helicopter, has not made it possible to find the little girl.
