      <image:title>Mission - Security</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Ngwabou Institute serves as a safe haven for vulnerable children. As they are often subject to homelessness, abandonment, abuse, and exploitation (human trafficking, sex slavery, child soldiery), a secure location is necessary to contribute actively to education and create a sense of decency in our students’ lives.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Mission - Education</image:title>
      <image:caption>In our target areas, children do not have access to any form of education due to lack of resources, geographic isolation, and war-torn communities. The Ngwabou Institute maintains a secure environment to help foster literacy in these places in order to break its students out of this perpetual cycle of desperation.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Our Vision - Our Work in Global Context</image:title>
      <image:caption>In the context of ongoing social and political crises in Africa, nonprofit organizations have a unique role to play in order to address the dire situation of orphans and underprivileged children. These orphans and extremely poor children become outcasts and are often abandoned or rejected by their own parents due to the extreme poverty that they live in, and the total lack of civil and social protections. These children end up dropping out of school and start living in the streets, the markets, public places and even in the cities’ garbage dumps. They are also confronted with several issues, including homelessness, education and health care, hunger, theft, and even rape. For these reasons, these orphans and poor children very quickly become targets of human trafficking, sex slavery, or end up being exploited by people who use them until they become disposable. The Ngwabou Institute recognizes that orphans and children living in high poverty areas are twice as likely to experience traumatic events like violent crime or abuse that disrupt their ability to learn. Realizing the urgency to act in favor of the poor and abandoned children in Africa, with a special emphasis on the many displaced from the war destroyed North West and South West regions of Cameroon, as well as underprivileged kids in rural areas of Kenya, Ngwabou Institute was started to give a chance to these marginal and precarious children, contribute actively to their education, create a sense of decency for them, thereby guaranteeing the rights according to the UN, including the right to: Life, survival and development. Protection from violence, abuse or neglect. An education that enables children to fulfill their potential. — Hervé Tchumkam Executive Director, Founder</image:caption>
