Summary of Our December Outreach to Save the Children Foundation, Limbe
As part of our commitment to uplifting vulnerable communities, The Mbome Foundation selected the oldest orphanage in the city of Limbe for our pioneer outreach visit. This historic institution has served as a safe haven for countless children over the decades, making it a meaningful place to begin our journey of impact.
The visit was filled with emotion, joy, and renewed hope. Our team spent the day engaging with the children, listening to their stories, and sharing moments that reminded us why our mission matters. It was a powerful experience that strengthened our resolve to continue creating opportunities for young people across Cameroon.
Launch of the Mbome Scholarship Fund
This inaugural visit also marked the official launch of the Mbome Scholarship Fund, a long-term initiative designed to support children with exceptional potential but limited resources. In a profound gesture of commitment, our President of the Board and Founder awarded full scholarships—extending through university—to two young children. This act symbolizes our belief that every child deserves the chance to dream, learn, and build a brighter future.
Supporting Daily Needs
The foundation arrived with essential food supplies, including rice, cooking oil, spaghetti, salt, and other staples to support the orphanage’s daily needs. These items were received with gratitude and will help ease the burden on caregivers who work tirelessly to provide for the children.
Moments of Connection
Beyond material support, our team prioritized human connection. Members of the foundation spent time interacting with the children, sharing stories, laughter, and encouragement. These moments of warmth and presence are at the heart of our work—reminding each child that they are seen, valued, and supported.
Our Commitment Continues
We concluded the visit with a heartfelt promise to return. This is only the beginning of a long-term partnership aimed at empowering children, strengthening institutions, and building a future where every young person has the opportunity to thrive.
