Economic Empowerment

Mme Ngum Matilda is another beneficiary of our program.

Matilda is the sole caregiver for her husband who was left disabled after an accident, and her daughter who lives with Down’s Syndrome. She is an extraordinary mother and wife who embodies vibrant resilience and unwavering dedication. Recognizing her indomitable spirit, we supported Matilda by assisting her in establishing a piggery to supplement her income as a daily savings collector. Our contribution of 500,000XAF revolutionized Matilda’s agribusiness, enabling her to cover their rent and provide for her two disabled family members. We are honored to uplift and empower Matilda as she continues her remarkable journey.

With the ongoing crisis in Cameroon, many people are either unemployed or have lost their source of livelihood. The Economic Empowerment program aims to equip individuals with the necessary skills, knowledge, and resources to become successful entrepreneurs, and create sustainable income opportunities. By providing training, mentorship, and access to financial support, this program fosters innovation, job creation, and economic self-sufficiency. It not only enables individuals to realize their potential but also contributes to poverty reduction, personal development, and overall socio-economic development in Cameroon and across the African continent. Through these initiatives, individuals are empowered to overcome challenges, unlock their enterprising spirit, and become agents of positive change in their communities.

The Mendem Foundation Economic

Empowerment program currently focuses on supporting displaced individuals in the Northwest and Southwest regions in Cameroon by providing them with sustainable income opportunities via entrepreneurship. Through generous donations, the project has transformed the lives of several beneficiaries from 2020 to present. Belthus Aga Tayong, is one of such beneficiaries. Belthus is a remarkable individual who possesses an abundance of talent despite being disabled after tragic accident in 2004. Having also endured the loss of his parents, he navigated a challenging path, cycling through various orphanages and homelessness, until he crossed paths with Mendem Foundation. Through our unwavering support, Belthus hasnow found solace in a permanent home and is tirelessly pursuing his small clothing business. However, his ambitions extend beyond personal success. Belthus envisions a world where vulnerable youths are empowered to rise above their circumstances and so he plans to help others too in the future. By championing his efforts, we are not only uplift one extraordinary individual but also potentially contributing to a brighter future for countless others facing similar challenges.
