Njinikejem Roof

The Problem

The Njinikejem School in northwestern Cameroon has been working to alleviate overcrowding by building up a new classroom. While the structure has been prepared, they did not have the available funds to install a finished roof on the building.

The Solution

Under our 10-Cent Project Solution program, the sixth through eighth graders at I.S. 218 in New York City have raised the funds needed for the roofing material so that the new classroom can be completed and put into use.

April 2012

The students of I.S.218 in New York presented a check to Joe for $800.00 as part of their fundraiser this year for The 10-Cent Project Solution program. Many thanks go out to the Student Government at I.S.218 who helped organize the fundraising efforts over the last few months.

One hundred percent of the money will be going to Cameroon to help the Njinikejem School with some roofing they need for a new classroom space that they are currently working on.

May 2012

After some heavy rains, the roof is getting framed up to prepare for the metal roofing materials. More classroom space with a new roof means a safe and dry area for education to continue.

Some of the local students are pitching in to help put up the new roof over their classroom at the Njinikejem School.

July 2012

The finished roofing material has been added to the new classroom at the Njinikejem School in Cameroon. The enclosed classroom should be in use for the upcoming school year now that it can keep the students safe from the elements. Thanks again go out to the students at I.S.218 in NYC who raised the money for this project.
