Programme

Displaced Families

Food and essentials for families who fled the crisis in the North-West and South-West regions.

Where: Bonaberi, Douala

Thousands of families have fled the crisis in Cameroon’s North-West and South-West regions and rebuilt their lives in Douala with very little. We visit them in Bonaberi and elsewhere with food and essentials, through our mobile crisis relief work, Chantiers Mobiles Crise.

Standing with displaced families
The Foundation visits families who fled the crisis to Douala and shares food and essentials. Parents say the gift will feed their children for days, and some plan to share it with neighbours. The founder calls it “the first of many”.

Supplies for displaced families at Bonaberi
The Foundation shares food and supplies with families at Bonaberi who fled the crisis from Bamenda to Douala. “It takes a little to put a smile on somebody’s face,” the team says. A host says it will help feed the children in their care, and one mother plans to share hers with her parents in the village.
