“To tackle the maternal and infant mortality rates that are still abnormally high due to the crucial lack of infrastructures, The Francis Ngannou Foundation ambitions to build the first Women, Maternity and Pediatric Hospital in the entire West region of Cameroon which is home to more than 2.7 millions inhabitants. The hospital will be accessible to and serve at least 650,000 inhabitants on a superficy of 4,500 km2.” The Francis Ngannou Foundation.
“International standards recommend provision of 1 ambulance for every 50,000 people to fulfil demand for transporting patients to definitive care facilities in Low and Middle Income Countries / LMICs (cf: US National Institute of Health).
Cameroon being home to more than 28 millions inhabitants the country should thus account for at
least 560 ambulances accessible to all. However, due to the local realities we are far from this number. For the well being of the Cameroonian population via the improvement of public emergency health, The Francis Ngannou Foundation ambitions to contribute largely to the building of a Network of Ambulances in the entire country. ” The Francis Ngannou Foundation.
“ It starts... with a smile ” is one of the top program of the Joseph and Micheline S. Djanang Foundation. “ It starts... with a smile” program’s primary goal is to allow the vast populations of
each city and village of Cameroon to be able to be medically appropriately treated by providing dental clinics or surrounding hospitals with necessary imaging equipments.
It may sound surprising but 68% of the Cameroonian population has never had a dental consultation in their lifetime. It is a way too large number thus, for the past 10 years the Foundation has provided 1000 free dental consultations per year to people suffering.
This is how the people at the Joseph and Micheline S. Djanang Foundation came to realise that most structures lack the most basic imaging equipment needed to make a diagnosis; They thus decided to take actions to tackle this issue.
Created by Samuel Eto’o in 2006 in Cameroon, the Samuel Eto’o Foundation is also registered in the US since 2018.
In 2012 the Samuel Eto’o Foundation built the first Samuel Eto’o Football Academy in Libreville the capital of Gabon. The Football Academy has been inaugurated by The President of the Republic of Gabon HE Omar Bongo. Through its Football Academy (Fundesport) and its partnership with Barcelona Football Club in Spain, Samuel Eto’o has managed to build two champions:
- André Onana: Italy’s 2022 champion with Inter Milan.
- Fabrice Ondoua.
These two players were discovered and mentored by Samuel Eto’o while trained at the Samuel Eto’o Football Academy before being sent to Barcelona Football Club youth academy : La Masia.
However, Samuel Eto’o is also invested in education and wants to make information technology accessible to all in Cameroon. He is thus working on the creation of a chain of Information Technology and Computing centers across the country to allow the Youth of Cameroon to learn and keep up with the rest of the World but furthermore to allow them to expand their minds, their horizons and dreams. Indeed, he strongly believes that dreams and ideas are the seeds for innovations and thus for personal, social and economic development.
