PROMOTE AND SUPPORT LOCALLY
The Association
The Support Association Children's Aid and St. Thomas Hospital in Cameroon e.V. was founded in the year 2000. It supports education as well as caring for sick people and those in need of help in Cameroon.
Our association is recognized as a non-profit organization; it has branches in Germany and France.
Moreover, we are happy that on a local level we only employ natives. Nevertheless we always warmly welcome specialists from abroad who want to use their skills to support our work in Cameroon.
Conversely, it is important to us that our African employees have the opportunity to get an impression of our vocational training in Europe through guest stays.

Varied Cameroon
Cameroon lies at the intersection of West and Central Africa. Due to its north-south extension, it cuts through the most diverse vegetation and climate zones: from the rainy coastal lowlands with huge tropical rainforests, to the central plateau and the more desert-like dry zones of the north.
