COSSA International and LICHA-Cameroon PARTNERSHIP RESCUES AN IDP WOMAN

 

The more than 5-years collaboration between COSSA International- LICHA-Cameroon has continued to bear humanitarian fruits to the vulnerable in the society. 
Some weeks ago, COSSA and LICHA teams led a powerful delegation to donate fifty-five 3-weeks old table-birds to an internally displaced woman in the city center of Bamenda III Nkwen. This donation from COSSA- International was meant to boost the benevolent efforts of the said woman, who herself is hosting fourteen other less privileged children who are all internally displaced in her home.
This woman whose health condition is not at its best hale from the far-off Bui Division of the Northwest Region. She happened to have found herself in Bamenda town during the early days of the ongoing sociopolitical crisis bedeviling the two English-speaking regions of Cameroon. Having received a free accommodation from a goodwill Cameroonian abroad to live and take care of his house in town, this humanitarian IDP resolved to reciprocally begin lending a helping hand to many more internally displaced persons she has been encountering in her struggles. The current more than fourteen IDP’s who share the same roof with this woman do range from pupils, students, single mothers, apprentices and other elderly women. As LICHA in her fieldwork expedition encountered this woman in dire need of assistance to sustain herself and help other persons of her kind, her desperate cry was transmitted to COSSA International whom for a start responded favorably by donating to her 55 table-birds, — 5 bags of feed and a good number of poultry equipment in order to enhance her ongoing generous initiative of taking care of vulnerable persons, herself inclusive.
Receiving this significant donation from COSSA-International through LICHA, the recipient joyously thanked her donors praying to the Almighty to replenish their source umpteenth times. Adding that apart from his benevolent host, she has no sponsor and this debut bequest from COSSA/LICHA, she strongly believes shall serve as a door opener to her and many more under her tutelage of humanitarian Aid. Meanwhile, as LICHA continues to hail COSSA her arch partner for often reacting to her clarion calls of such a nature, Life Changing Humanitarian Association is calling on goodwill persons in the public to kindly come to the aid of this kindhearted woman and her numerous beneficiaries.

SOS: An Internally Displaced Woman Hosting 14 Children Pleads for Help

Sarah Ginyuy

She is an Internally Displaced woman who housed and host over 14 children. She is a high blood patient who equally faces serious challenges with her legs and back. She has been a nanny in over 17 houses and she had lived in a house where, when rainfalls it enters the house. Most of the children she lives with are internally displaced children who are not going to school because of financial challenges. As we speak, she cannot afford for her injection drugs, feeding and other basic needs. At some point she started selling food and local juice but the fridge she used in selling was taken away because the person who owned it started her own business and needed her fridge. So, she is appealing for support with food items, access to medicines and to also be empowered with table birds to engage in poultry farming as a sustainable means of livelihood for herself and the internally displaced children she is housing.
