Ways to Help

You can now donate to Educare-Africa using your credit card on line. Go to www.JustGive.org and type in "Educare Africa" as your charity of choice and proceed from there. They give 100% of your donation to each group you choose.

We will use these resources to:

  • buy textbooks in Cameroon (they are not available in the U.S.A.)  
  • purchase school supplies in Cameroon (it saves $ for shipping)
    •  
  • assist needy students with paying for rent, food, clothing, kerosene, health care, shoe repair, transport to their villages when school is over.  
  • assist brilliant students in applying to American colleges
 

You can donate the following items:

  • laboratory equipment (it is not easy to find good lab equipment in Cameroon)  
  • computers (small – portable ones would be preferable) 
  • scientific calculators  
  • camera and a video camera to document our work  
  • office supplies to lower our expenses

 

Other Help

  • You can also sponsor an individual student(s) either monthly or annually.   
  • If you or someone you know would travel to Cameroon, you can bring some of these donations with you and drop them at Peace Corps office in Yaounde (near the Omnisport Stadium). Write on them “For EDUCARE-AFRICA,” attn. Cyprian. He will take care of these donations.
  • You can become a PEN PAL for a student in Cameroon. They would love to have pen friends. Or you can find some pen friends and let us know.  What you need to do to become a pen friend is to write a letter with your name, address, photograph and information about yourself (age, school, interests, family, beliefs, etc.) and send it to EDUCARE-Africa.
    We will find a match for you and you can just wait for your reply from a student from Cameroon.
