Mr Marcial L. felt privileged to go to primary school in a small village in western Cameroon, where most children had no opportunity for education and therefore few or no dreams, except to take over their parents' farms later on. This sad reality shaped his dream and his goal of helping to educate African children, because it is every child's right to be educated. Later, he continued his studies in Germany and obtained a degree in engineering, but he still had the same dream. As life would have it, nature sent him a wife who shared the same dream and who was passionate about education in general and the education of children in particular. Together, they have 5 children, and what could be better than to be made aware of the challenges of a good education? Together, they founded the association e2africa e.V. to enable all those who share the same passion to join forces in order to educate African children. As the saying goes, "a piece of wood is not enough to make a fire".

The mission is to provide African children with access to education from an early age until they reach the age of independence. As a result of this mission, a childcare centre "le cocon de maman" was set up in September 2016 in Douala and opened its doors to 55 children aged 1 to 5.

In September 2022, a nursery school and a primary school were opened to continue providing a good education for the youngest children. Together with our local staff, we strive to provide the best possible education for Cameroon's young people.
