Together, we can give every mother and child the care they deserve
Every day, YGOPH cares for women and children who need specialised treatment: premature babies, mothers with complicated pregnancies, children with cancer, sickle cell disease or congenital malformations. Many of them come from families with very limited means.
Our partners – governments, NGOs, foundations, companies, universities, faith communities and individuals in Cameroon and the diaspora – help us go further. Whether you can give medicines, equipment, expertise, time or funds, there is a way to make a difference.
