About VC Foundation

In Cameroon, too many children and women face abuse, exploitation and neglect.

In remote communities like Bangem, 2 in 3 girls are sexually abused before the age of 10, and teenage pregnancy accounts for 8 out of 10 school dropouts among adolescent girls.

These scars go beyond childhood—robbing girls and children of education, women of opportunities, and families of stability.

Our Vision To have a society where women, girls and children will enjoy their rights free from all sorts of abuse and ab able to contribute to the development of their societies

Our Mission To Empower and Protect vunerable and disadvantaged women and children in neglected communities

Our Theory of Change

The If and Then Statement of VC Foundation
