About us

The Cameroonian Association for the Betterment of Youths (CABY) is a dedicated non-profit organization committed to uplifting the youth of Cameroon and creating lasting, positive change in communities across the nation. Our mission is to empower young people through education, advocacy, and a strong focus on sustainable development.

At CABY, we believe that by addressing the root causes of societal challenges—such as drug abuse, juvenile delinquency, environmental degradation, and illegal immigration—we can create a brighter future for all Cameroonians.

Through school outreach programs, community workshops, and media campaigns, we raise awareness about the dangers of drugs and promote positive alternatives. CABY also offers rehabilitation and counseling services to those affected by drug abuse, helping them reintegrate into society and lead fulfilling lives

Our Impact!!!

Since our inception, CABY has made a significant impact in communities across Cameroon. Our drug prevention programs have reached thousands of young people, our environmental initiatives have restored and protected vital ecosystems, and our cultural preservation efforts have ensured that Cameroon’s rich heritage continues to thrive.
Each success story is a testament to the dedication of our team, partners, and volunteers. Together, we are making a difference, one step at a time.
