Our Beginning
Catherine's Story
SCACHA was born from a deeply personal experience. Catherine, a young mother in Bamenda, witnessed firsthand the struggles faced by vulnerable women, children, and families in her community — struggles that too often went unnoticed and unsupported.
Moved by compassion, she began organizing small community support groups, gathering resources, and volunteering her time to help those most in need. What started as one woman's act of kindness grew into a movement of care.
Today, the Saint Catherine Charity for Humanitarian Aid (SCACHA) carries forward that founding spirit — serving displaced families, supporting maternal and child health, expanding education access, and championing disability inclusion across Cameroon.
