Welcome to Helps International (HINT), Cameroon
Our mission is to improve the social and economic well-being and health of the poor and under privileged in our society through education, skill development and job creation. We seek to accomplish this mission in the communities in which we work through four main areas which include access and training on Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), enabling poor children to still have a good education, improving the health of the poor and helping to reduce the spread of the HIV/AIDS pandemic, empowering poor adults through micro credits and training, and helping with community development projects such as clean drinking water and ...

Help orphans & less privileged children go to school
We have assisted more than 100 orphans and less privileged children go to school. Without our support some of them might never have been in school or might have dropped out. Together we can make a difference. You can sponsor a child today!
Educate a whole family with the same set of textbooks
We set up a revolving Community Education Library that gives out school textbooks to needy children to use for that school year and then return to the library. The same books are then given out to another group of needy children for the following year and the cycle continues. Libraries are set up in schools enabling easy access to books by children in need. If this is the kind of project you would like to support, please contact us.
Help an orphan go back to school this year by supporting our annual Back Packs Program
Each year, we provide essential school supplies such as textbooks, uniforms, school fees and related needs to children who otherwise will not be in school withtout our help. More tthan 150 children have been assisted this way and you can join us today!
Business training & loans help women break the cycle of poverty
Provision of business training and loans is part of our micro-finance package intended to help lift especially women and their families out of poverty. We work with women organised in groups that provide security for each members loan. We have experienced 99.9% repayment rate with the over 50 women we work with. If it were not for the limitation of capital, we can change Cameroon with our inovative microcredit scheme. Please join us if that's your heart beat!
Trained Community HIV Educators in turn educate their groups
We are helping to end the spread of HIV by training Community HIV Educators who in turn will educate their groups and family members. We select people from social groups within the community, equip them will HIV information and send them back into their communities to help their peers be aware of the disease and know how to protect themselves or live with it. Help if this is where your heart goes.
Medical outreaches within needy communities provide life-saving health information.
By moving into a community and providing critical health information including free consultation and delivery of free essential drugs, thousands of live have been saved. If you are interested in a 1-2 week medical outreach or would like to support such efforts, please contact us.
