Project of Great Hope and the Ngambe-Tikar people of Cameroon

Project of Great Hope is based on TechCeFaCos’ Humanitarian Program aimed at providing and making available basic human needs like water, food and shelter; as well children growth as the fountain of life and base for future generation.
It’s all became behind the aim of ‘Holidays for Hope’-giving lasting hope on a special day of December for homeless and underprivileged kids of all abilities…as we of TechCeFaCos NGO Cameroon together with Dreams for Kids US, we organized and undertaken a mission to Ngambe-Tikar where we came cross bunches of great needy people who needs our help! Our journey was not all that easy to before coming across this people.


The basic issues here from our observation and inquire was that of health and education! Health issues resulting from Polio, Schistosomiasis and Intestinal Helminthiasis (poor sanitation), Cholera (drinking water) and STDs (no sex education) infections are several, so lots of disable and high death rate in children. Illiteracy is still very high in this community, as 75% are primary school dropped outs due to lack/inefficient basic academy needs!
Our vision is to empower the young generation which is the tomorrow leaders through provision of basic needs good hygiene, education, shelter  and water. We are looking forward to uplift the community from the poverty level which will have great impact of the economy through motivating them by providing the basic needs.
