Safe Return to US

We done reach! After just two glorious weeks in Cameroon we have returned to the US...Back in the 'Burgh! The trip was a great success with all of the main objectives being realized. Training sessions for the 12 program leaders were completed in the first week in Kumba. During the second week, the group comprised of ten men and two women planned and implemented three day-long youth camps, building on their ability to run football drills and lead discussion on the health and social topics. On Saturday evening, we all gathered for a Farewell Gala. Over the next few months, we will partner with six local secondary schools to continue to refine and develop this interactive education/football model. Weekly educational football sessions will allow each of the board members to understand the most effective presentation model for future use. While we are working to improve our own skills, the youth will benefit the most!!
