Solidarity Voku against a social housing eviction. Concert with Les French Fries, Alex Riey & Guillaume Square Neck

Thursday September 10, 2026, Solidarity Voku against a social housing eviction, concert with Les French Fries, Alex Riey & Guillaume Square Neck. Vegan food served from 7pm, no reservation. Between 20:30 and 22:00, music on the stage. Free entrance, donations more than welcome to support the 2 touring bands.

The money of the voku will go to help support M, a 24-year-old currently threatened with eviction. M. arrived in France alone at the age of 15 and was taken in charge by the state’s children services. He managed to find work in a bakery at night and was granted access to social housing. He also obtained a residence permit but at his last renewal, even though he had submitted all the required documents on time, the state’s service did not issue him a temporary receipt (which allows him to work) while waiting for his new residence card. Because of this, M. lost his job and hasn’t been able to pay rent for the past several months.
He is now threatened with eviction by the social housing company. In light of this urgent situation, friends were able to gather money to lend to M. so that he could pay his rents of the last months and go to a court, where the judge will decide whether or not to cancel the eviction order.
This voku will help reimbourse the money his friends lent him to avoid eviction. Thanks for your support!!
