A2Empowerment provides scholarships, mentorship, and support to girls and women who face barriers to education in Cameroon, such as poverty, gender discrimination, early marriage, and lack of resources. We believe that educating women is the most effective way to reduce poverty and improve health. By empowering women with knowledge and skills, we hope to create a ripple effect of positive change.

Since its founding in 2008, A2Empowerment has awarded over 2,350 educational scholarships to young women in Cameroon.

​

Recipients are chosen based on need and merit, with a priority placed on selecting young women in the later years of school when they are at a higher risk of dropping out. 

Approximately $80 USD covers tuition, fees, and supplies for a year of high school.
