Some Pictures from Past years...





Football Pitch, Barombi Village, 2008 - Perhaps the unofficial Start of the Cameroon Football Development Program. All young men in the Barombi village were equipped with donated soccer shoes from the US - more than 35 in all. The village also received a team set of jerseys donated by Wheeling Central High School, Wheeling, West Virginia.


Mbo Barombi Village, 2008 - University of Dayton Students stand next to a public tap stand in the village at the Inauguration Ceremony for the water supply system they helped design, fundraise for, and build. They are dressed in traditional African dresses. The men wear stocking caps and neck ties particular to the Barombi Clan.


Lake Barombi 2008 - University of Dayton ETHOS Students and Barombi youth go for an afternoon swim in the lake. The students lived in the village for 2 months and worked with the local water management committee to build a gravity-fed water supply system.


Kumba, 2008 - CLICKS Organization stands together before a friendly match. CLICKS is a youth organization dedicated to improving the lives of the less fortunate. They volunteer their time helping at local orphanages and hospitals. They also sponsor the studies of some Kumba youth by providing them school fees, books, and school supplies.
