Keep Children in School: Transform the Lives

HUFAC-CAMEROON is deeply grateful to all donors and supporters of our project, “Transform Lives in Kumba: Support Orphan Education.” Through the generosity of contributors on the GlobalGiving platform, we have so far raised $151, representing approximately 1.5% of our overall fundraising target of $10,000. Dispite the challenges,these funds have already made a meaningful impact in the lives of vulnerable orphaned children in Kumba, South West Region of Cameroon. With the donations received, we were able to provide essential school materials, including exercise books, pens, pencils, and basic learning supplies to several children from low-income and conflict-affected households. This support has helped improve school attendance, learning motivation, and classroom participation among beneficiaries.

The project continues to respond to the urgent educational needs of orphaned and vulnerable children affected by the ongoing socio-economic challenges in the region. Current assessments show that many children still lack access to adequate educational materials, school support, and psychosocial encouragement. Every contribution received brings us one step closer to ensuring that these children remain in school and have hope for a brighter future. We sincerely appreciate every donor who has supported this cause and encourage friends, partners, and well-wishers around the world to keep the support coming. Together, we can reach more children, transform more lives, and create lasting educational opportunities for vulnerable orphans in Kumba.

The "Transform Lives in Kumba: Support Orphans Education" initiative which aims to create sustainable educational opportunities for orphans, IDPs, Children in Distress and Returnees in Kumba, Cameroon. This program Since initiation has been addressing pressing needs for quality education among vulnerable children who have lost their parents, often resulting in the ongoing conflict affecting the English speaking regions in Cameroon, increased poverty and limited access to resources. By partnering with local schools and community organizations, including GlobalGiving, the initiative has provided scholarships to 175 children, school supplies, and tutoring services, fostering an environment that promotes learning and personal development. The primary goal is to ensure children affected by the loss of parental care can achieve academic success and thrive in their communities.

To maximize impact, HUFAC-Cameroon organized 4 workshops for caregivers and educators, focusing on the importance of a supportive educational framework for orphans, IDPs and Returnees.This holistic approach has empowered Community leaders by equipping them with the necessary skills and resources to nurture these children’s potential. The Grand offered as project of the month in May 2025 actually enable us to increase scholarships for academic year 2025/2026 to about 25%. Your Support is actually raising hope and Transforming Lives. 

Thank you.
