Shared World Visions and Global Pearls have made it possible to send seven deserving students to go to university… in Cameroon. Without this help, these young people would not have been able to further their education.
2017 Hiv condom campaign

In September of 2017,Muluh Godson and Milton Kelly,two high achieving university students I have known since 2009,presented me with a proposal.They wanted to do a seminar for college age girls focusing on ways to prevent HIV and pregnancies.With less than $500,they printed posters, ran group seminars and girls received pregnancy tests and contraceptives. ,
2016 GBHS gets new trash cans

We started the recycling program in 2012,paper,plastic and food scraps. the shop students at the high school of 1900, built wood frames for 3 cans. the paper was burned, plastic buried and the food scraps composted.
2016 Meli Schools finally have water taps

I can’t imagine a school without water but finally both Meli elementary schools now have several taps outside the classrooms and near the bathrooms. We also added extra taps at the high school and the teacher’s college. the photo of the young boy with flowers is a thank you for clean water.
The milk program at the government high school

In 2014,I interviewed 60 students and discovered many had nothing to eat until evening. We began serving hot milk in the mornings to students who came to school hungry. Our goal is to serve a small breakfast this year.
2015 Women celebrating water taps at Baichu village

Thirty minutes by car on a dirt road takes us to Baichu village. Before without water or toilet paper,the students used their clothes to clean themselves. Here the mothers and grandmothers are celebrating the three water taps built with donations from Shared World Visions.

clean water is a right

We take access to water for granted when we turn on the faucet in our house or take a hot shower. But 345 million people in Africa do not have access to any water. Women and children spend part of their day carrying water from dirty streams. Since 2010 with donations, we have built water systems in villages and schools and changed the lives of over 7000 people.

education transforms lives

There is a 50% dropout rate in primary and secondary school in northwest Cameroon. Students quit because of language barriers and financial hardship. Joining forces with BFF, a local non profit in Fundong, with your donations we have enrolled over 50 students in primary and secondary school. A $50 donation supports a primary school student , a $100 donation will fund a high school student.
