Josué Bidias
“After my A-levels in 2013, I always dreamt of joining the SBA family, to give them my very best in order to ensure the best future for my cadets at the centre. When the opportunity was presented to me, to be the nurse at Jardin Eden and Etoudi, I immediately accepted and started volunteering. And above all, it was a way for me to thank this family which for 2 years helped me grow into the man I am now.“
Fanny
“These days, I study at the University of Yaounde I for a Physics Masters, a course that few women attend. It was not difficult to choose it, because one of the things we learnt at SBA is that there should not be barriers to the education of women.”
Bertrand
“In one word I would say that SBA brought me joy. Everywhere I go, it’s true that people say that I am « a good person ». This is why if I have to I sum up my experience at the SBA in one word, it would be: Joy.”
