A little help can make a huge difference
Tobias Blazer of Swiss nationality who volunteered for HINT in early 2008 and then returned home, was back to Cameroon in December 2008.
This time, he came to be married to Jane whom he mot and loved while volunteering here! What a changed life!

On behalf of all of us at Helps International (HINT) Cameroon (https://www.hintonline.org) I would like to take this opportunity to say ‘Thank You’ for generously supporting our work in 2008. Without you, we would not have accomplished as much as we did and we thought it would be good to let you know that we value your contributions to the work we are doing.
We are currently working on our 2008 annual report and as soon as it is ready, we will share it with you.
We look forward to your continuous support in 2009 even as the world’s economy is experiencing an economic depression. We believe that together we can still make a huge difference.
We wish you a very prosperous New Year 2009 and pray that all goes well with you, including everyone and everything related to you.
Sincerely,
–

FFF 2008 raised US$ 1,830
Our lone annual fundraiser called Food For Funds (FFF) raised US$1,830 during the months of October/November 2008.
We wish to express our heart-felt gratitude to all our donors all of whom are US citizens who still gave despite the hash economic crisis that the USA and the entire worked is going through.
In keeping with our principle of transparency, we are grateful for the following donors:
US$ 1,830 will provide business training, HIV information/training and loans to about 18 deserving and hardworking women who are entrepreneurs. This effort will indirectly improve the lives of about 130 people, given the large average family size in Cameroon.
Donations are still being accepted. If you want to donate by check, online or other means, please follow this link: http://www.www.hintonline.org/category/how-you-can-help. Thank you.
HINT is currently working with Engineers Without Borders (EWB), UK on a project dubbed “Enabling Safe Watter Supply”. The project aims to make use of the Ndongo stream in Buea to provide clean drinking water to the population of Buea and its environs.
The Research Proposal is now being advertised on EWB-UK’s websites. A group of engineering students in the UK will travel to Buea to carry out further research and to determine the best technology that can be designed to solve the problem.
Details about the Research Proposal and EWB-UK can be found here: http://www.ewb-uk.org/HINT
