Nonprofit Overview

Causes: International, International Relief

Mission: Harvest Children’s Home (HCH) is a place of hope and redeemed lives. It began in the early 90’s as a feeding station for the most desperate orphans. In 2005 our current compound was completed. Since then, many needy Cameroonian children have found a new family, a new hope and a new future. They came to HCH destitute. Now they have nutritious meals, clean water, spiritual care, a good education and plenty of love! Their hope is restored, thanks to friends like you. We are raising the next generation of Christian leaders in Cameroon. Join us in redeeming lives!

Amos Njoh- Cry Cameroon has been a life changer for so many impoverished kids in a region devastated by war and in a country where orphans are usually not taking care of. The work done by Cry Cameroon to provide opportunities to the orphans are priceless. I will recommend to continue to support Cry Cameroon .

Beginning in 2008, I have visited Harvest Children's Home many times. I have had the opportunity to train their staff and spend time with the children. I am thankful for the many adults who have given of themselves to serve the children through cooking, supervising the day-to-day operations of the Home, educating the children, training them in life-skills, encouraging them to follow Jesus, and helping them to be family for each other.

I have had the privilege of visiting Harvest Children's Home multiple times. Short-term teams from the US travel to visit the orphans, play games, teach life-skills, and train staff. Often a project to benefit the orphanage is accomplished as well.
Children are trained to care for their personal items, wash their clothes, help in the kitchen, and assist in keeping the orphanage facilities cleaned
The children and the staff are gracious and welcoming. There is an area at the home for the short-term teams to be housed and we are always treated to delicious meals, adapted to western tummies.
During the recent civil unrest in the area, the staff have sacrificially stepped in to protect the children and keep the orphanage running. They have helped children with school work and prepared the older children to take exams in order to attend university. Many graduates from the program have returned to offer assistance. It is a successful program and has helped many children who don't have families to care for them.

A great organization where you can personally get to know the people you are helping, you can see the children grow up into young adults, you know where your money goes... and your money goes a long way in Cameroon! This is a place where lives are redeemed and life trajectories are forever changed! This a place where orphaned and vulnerable children can learn to love again (and be loved) and dream again of bright futures.

This is a great ministry redeeming lives of orphaned children in Cameroon. These are real lives of real children having their stories being rewritten with hopes and dreams instead of despair and destitution. This is a ministry of giving orphaned children a new family to love be loved by and to be a part of.

Financially, a little goes a long way in Cameroon to make a real impact in the lives of these children.

I am Derrick Afumbom .
I have been benefiting from the CryCamerpoon Ministry for 18 years now.
Cry Cameroon Ministry is my story and my testimony. I cannot tell how my life would have been if this selfless ministry did not step in.
An organization that took charge of my life, making going to school a reality for me and many Orphaned and vulnerable children in Cameroon.
I learned from their selflessness the love Jesus showed was real.
I am in my third year in the university of Bamenda in Cameroon taking a degree in communication and Development Studies where in two years i will be a certified communicator for Development. All this is through the selfless sponsorship of the ministry.
I am even more amazed with the work Cry Cameroon is doing back home in the Boyo Division of Cameroon now, consistently making sure all my kiddos back at the orphanage are given the best life and education amidst the difficult economic and political crisis in our country.
Cry Cameroon Ministry has given me a story to tell and i want the world hear me loud.
A family like none other.

I must tell the world about Harvest Children's Home, which is my first home. This home gave me a new beginning, a new family, a new hope and many more. Harvest Children's Home practically raised me from a boy till when i became an adult. I went to Harvest Children's Home when i was 9 years old and i left at almost 19 years old. Harvest Children's Home, has given me education, given me Christ, taught me to continually extend love to others. It is an endless series of good things from this place. I am really grateful to God for this great home.

There has never been a place like home and there will never be still the day I go to meet with the Most High.
Making a change, start from a single move. Reducing a distance comes from taking a step no matter how little creeping, it still makes a difference.
There are so many helpless kids in the world and if you can change the life of one, through prayers, financial or materially, they will be a change and It will always continue. Maybe you may want to and you don't know how? Here is how, at HCH charity organization. I am also a kid from HCH and I can testify that, YOU are doing something only GOD can do. Taking care of the little ones and being them close to him
Thanks to HCH and all the life changers and especially YOU that will partner with HCH

I have been with Cry Cameroon USA and its orphanage Harvest Children's Home since the founding of the organization. I have been blessed many times over to see the progress of a young orphan child come into Harvest Children's Home, surrounded with love, caring nurture, given a good education, and grow into a productive young adult. Many of them learn a profession by going to the university or learn a trade through some apprentice program or trade school. When you donate to Cry Cameroon USA, you can have the assurance that your money will go to the work of the orphanage. Cry Cameroon USA does not waste money in bloated overhead.

I have supported Cry Cameroon USA since it was founded. Harvest Children's Homes is a major part of this ministry. It has been heartwarming to help orphans get a much needed roof over their heads, beds, good food, schooling, medical care, Christian education, and much needed love from the staff. My family had much interaction with the founder while he was establishing the ministry of the orphanage. I can vouch for his love of these needy children. It has been a pleasure to support this ministry..

We are so grateful for Cry Cameroon USA. They help provide medical care, housing, food, schooling, and so much love and care to the beautiful children, and even the staff, at Harvest Children's Home in Cameroon. We have partnered with them for over a decade because we know that the money and supplies we donate go directly to helping the orphanage. It is an incredible organization, and we are proud to partner with them.

I have had the privilege of visiting Harvest Children's Home with a small team, and I was so impressed with the staff. The love and care they pour into each child is beautiful. I can so vividly remember the joy exuded by the children and the staff, and how it was so evident that God was doing an amazing work at HCH. I was truly blessed by everyone at HCH, and I am excited to see all that God has in store for this ministry!

I lost both parents at the age of five a year later Cry Cameroon gave me a home and a family at Harvest Children's home. I have lived and called it my home for over 11years now. It is the best thing that ever happened to me. While there I was taken care of all my needs provide I got to visit places I only dreamt of, meet people and experience love like never before. Cry Cameroon has impacted my life in ways I can't even tell. Before I went to Harvest Children's home I have never been to school but now I am preparing for my post graduate studies all thanks to Cry Cameroon ministry.
All I am trying to say is Cry Cameroon has and is still working miracles in the lives of children in Cameroon

I've partnered with this organization since 2007, and participated and led trips to Cameroon many times over the years. It's such a great family of volunteers! The ministry supports orphans through Harvest Children's Home in the NorthWest province of Cameroon (and another home coming soon!), but they also partner with community building, education, church support and partnership, and social/government relationships as part of this holistic ministry. It's full of servant-hearted partners, volunteers, friends, board members, and supporters. I even adopted my kids from Cameroon with their support. Love this ministry!

If you want your donations, time and prayer to go directly to the children of Cry Cameroon then team up with this organization! What a wonderful organization to be a part of. We have not regretted our decision to donate one second. These precious children and their staff need anything you can offer.

Myself and a friend travelled to Cameroon in 2017. We had intended on spending time at 3 orphanages over the 3 months. After the first 4 weeks at Harvest Children’s Home we couldn’t bring ourselves to move on and the home thankfully were happy to have us stay on also. What incredible staff and Children. We arrived in Cameroon believing that we would change the lives of those we met and the truth was it was us that had our lives changed. We continue to keep in touch. And they will forever be our African family. No better charity to support.
