Dr. Malingo's Mission: Hope for Cameroon Girls

Hello My name is Dr. Malingo Namata-Elangwe. I am a public health expert committed to helping the less fortunate. Driven by my passion for helping others, I founded a non-profit organization called "CAM-AMERICA GLOBAL INITIATIVE FOR SOCIAL CHANGE." Since its inception in 2013, we have provided healthcare services to many and empowered hundreds of women and girls in Cameroon and Ghana.

For over seven years now, there has been ongoing conflict and civil unrest in the English-speaking regions (South West & North West Provinces) of Cameroon. This has led to the displacement of individuals and families, loss of income, poverty, depression, and emotional/physical violence (including rape) against women and young girls. Secondary and high school educators report an increase in anxiety disorder, poor academic performance, and a lack of confidence among teenage girls.

These young girls are learning with limited resources under very stressful conditions. Some have lost one or both parents as a result of the conflict and are currently living with relatives, serving as house help while attending school. To address this problem, (CAGISC) has developed a "Girls Mentoring Program" that will provide free mentoring, counseling, dignity kits, uniforms, and school supplies for teenage girls affected by conflict in Kumba, Cameroon.

We are humbly asking for your support through donations. No amount is too small. Your donations are tax-deductible to the extent of the law.

Together we can bring hope and a promising future for teen girls in Cameroon.

Thank you in advance for your support!
