We are a non-Profit association focused on meeting the needs of under privileged youths in Douala. Our goal is to raise funds to establish a fully functioning day time refuge center so that the children of Douala have a safe space to go after school. We hel out children aged 5-14 years old who have had to resort to soliciting money on the streets out of school hours to help pay for their food, clothing, school fees etc. Children aged 14-17 years old - who carry out mini jobs in order to support themselves and their families. Mini jobs include, selling small items on the street, shoe cleaning and proters. We currently support 14 children.

Our mission is to help. Help children who truly need us. We've started this project years ago and put in all of our soul, heart, energy and professionalism. Our last project, however, is different! Different in scale, duration, direction. If we want to successfully keep it on we need the help of many more people and make them stand behind our idea. So we dream and we hope that this pilot initiative will become a mission of the whole society. With joint efforts, new ideas and forms we hope to achieve results which affect society, the economy and the state. After 13 years of working with disadvantaged children we came to the conclusion that about 40% of adolescents among them have intellectual potential well above average, and every second child has a brilliant talent or gift. Thus, the project School of Arts and Crafts for Socially Disadvantaged Children was born . Generally our mission is: To provide an opportunity for talented and gifted children to receive free quality education and upbringing. Help to maintain, develop and improve their natural potential and turn it into a capital for their future; To provide an individual approach and professional care, excellent facilities and environment filled with comfort, peace and love; To promote the growth of good and smart people motivated and confident to realize their professional and life start; To provide the best team of teachers, mentors, experts and inspiring artists who lead children to self-knowledge and self-expression. In fact, our most important mission is to have many, many smiles on the faces of the children! Being happy with everything that happens to them and around them, feeling comfortable in their growth and confident that after graduating from our school they have the knowledge and skills necessary to hold the future in their hands.
