This initiative is dedicated to Mr. Titus Etame, a brilliant student in the 80s whose formal education ended in Primary Seven because his parents could not afford secondary school tuition. His story reflects the harsh reality faced by many gifted children in underserved communities.
Inspired by Titus, Betty’s Help Foundation is committed to ensuring that no child’s future is cut short by poverty. We strive to create opportunities for every child to fulfill their full potential

We offer scholarships to:
We supply essential resources, including textbooks, school supplies, desks, and teaching aids to ensure children have the tools for academic success.
We foster training and professional development programs to improve instructional quality, classroom management, and student engagement.
We engage parents, local leaders, and community groups to actively support education, promoting long-term sustainability and ownership.
We cover registration and examination fees for disadvantaged students, ensuring financial barriers don't stop them from completing their national certifications.
We construct and restore classrooms and school facilities in affected communities, creating safe learning environments where children can return with confidence.
Volunteers from the Betty’s Help Foundation (BHF) provided vital transportation fares and food supplies to 24 pupils from the Queen of Peace Catholic School in Ekona. The students needed to travel 21 kilometers to Buea to take their end-of-course First School Leaving Certificate Examinations.
Since the Anglophone crisis began in 2016, widespread school closures have forced many children to drop out. Against this backdrop, Betty's Help Foundation organized the trip to ensure these students could test. Many of the pupils are orphans, come from child-headed households, or have parents who cannot afford tuition, making the cost of travel an impossible barrier.
Headteacher Madam Catherine Ngwesse expressed her deep gratitude to BHF for supporting these vulnerable children, some of whom struggled to even pay for their tuition and exam fees. The drivers navigating the high-risk, overpacked cars also appreciated BHF's support, given the dangers and costs of traveling during the ongoing conflict.
Excited by the aid, the children celebrated the food distributions and called out to friends in other crisis-affected areas like Ikata, Mautu, and Muyuka to join them, shouting, “Some people have come to see us!”
