“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful,
committed citizens can change the world, indeed it is the only thing that ever
has.”
I am Cameroon. This is a simple idea that has the potential
to transform the destiny of a people - a nation.
The Mission?? ‘to inspire, educate and engage
Cameroonians to accept and assume responsibility for the development of
Cameroon.’
Our vision; ‘to build a Cameroon
in which every citizen takes ownership of the development of the country.’ This movement will change
the way we think about our country.
The movement was launched in
Cameroon last April and has since been expanding to various cities all over
Cameroon. We are starting to build support groups in the Diaspora. On March 22,
we will have the formative meeting for the US Committee in Laurel Maryland at
Holiday Inn West Laurel from 1pm - 5pm.
We will be tweeting through the
event using #itbeginswithme and there will be updates on Facebook accordingly.
We will create time when people can Skype or call in at exactly 4pm EST for
just 30 minutes.
