2020 Donor Appeal
Partnerships for Peace
Cameroon is living in a constant state of conflict, and innocent civilians are caught in the crossfire. Children no longer have access to education, families have limited access to basic healthcare, and countless people are fleeing the violence. With our long-standing presence in Cameroon, we are in position to support these communities, and we need your help.
Fostering Strength and Community
As a result of this ongoing conflict, hospitals have been shut down, children have been forced from their schools, and an unprecedented influx of internally displaced persons are stretching local resources. To combat this, we are on the ground every day sharing children’s literacy programs, public health education, and meditation practices, working to help people find peace in the midst of turmoil.

Our Initiatives & The Issues They Solve
Children’s Literacy
Children have been unable to attend school for almost 3 years, and are experiencing an incredibly frightening and volatile time in their lives. We provide the space and support necessary to supplement this lack of education through in-depth mentoring and tutoring programs. Our programs allow children of all ages to advance their learning and personal growth and spend time in an environment that is safe and supportive. Through spelling bees, reading groups, collaborative learning activities, teamwork exercises, and basic breathing and meditation techniques, children are able to gather tools to advance their education and calm their hearts and minds during this time of conflict.
Health Education
Hospitals and health centers have been shut down for almost 3 years. Essential health services are no longer being provided to the civilians. We are providing widespread public health education focusing on preventive wellness, systematic breathing, and basic meditation techniques to help alleviate the emotional challenges this community is facing during these turbulent times. We have expertly trained staff, resources, and knowledge to reach thousands of people. In the midst of war-torn communities, breathing and meditation are helping people of all ages cope with their stress.
