August 15, 2007 by Genesis Leave a Comment

On September 8, 2007, HINT will provide education Support in the form of Scholarships, textbooks, uniforms to about 100 over 50 orphans and children from poor home in and around Buea. On that same day, we will also formally launch the Buea Community Library Project (BCLP).

BCLP focuses on providing school textbooks to orphas and children from poor homes so that they can still get a good education. Joanna Tillson, a volunteer from the USA has worked very hard for the past 5 weeks to put all this program together.

We are currently accepting donations to these and other children. CFA 25,000 (US$ 53) will buy all textbooks for 1 primary 6 child in a year; CFA 50,000 (US$ 106) will provide for 2 children, and so on. Go here to read more and learn how to donate.
