The Visible Plan and Vision of a Standard School in the Diocese of Kumbo: From Kindergarten through Primary, Secondary and High School.

May God be our Helper to see this dream come true. The cost estimate and the plan of action will be our next post. Dear friends, support us in whatever way you can. We shall tell you how to donate with the tax-exempt option or which ever way you prefer. Above all, pray for the realization of this giant project.

I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude to Collins Ambe who drew this plan wholeheartedly. I also wish to thank Rev. Fr. John Ambe who gave us some concrete suggestions from his experiences of many years of serving as an educator. May God continue to bless you all.

Mission Statement

The “Help Cameroonian School Kids” initiative is an outreach program for the underprivileged and vulnerable children living in the most interior and remotest areas of the diocese of Kumbo. The goal: to help children get an education.

We intend to provide the tuition, books and fees necessary to allow these children to attend school. By completing and furthering their education, the children will be able to bear witness that education brings light to a community. Impoverished families may see that education improves the standard of living, allowing people to acquire decent jobs and work towards achieving economic self-sufficiency.

In order to create a sustainable program, the community itself must also acquire certain basic skills such as: 1) Development skills where those who achieve higher education give back to the community and help to promote progress; 2) Initiative skills that teach resourceful and creative problem-solving; and 3) Technological skills to manage ever-changing innovations. To this end, we intend to create a Community-based Collaborative Group in each village involved in our outreach program. Each Group would be comprised of trained men and women who will disseminate information and dispense the available help to the children in need.

We realize that initially classes may need to take place in temporary locations. However, with the support of our donors and in collaboration with the local community, we hope to aid in the construction of durable school buildings where learning may take place. With the help of God, we pray and bestow our blessings upon all those who will support this venture.
