Founder

"As a child, I knew hunger and loneliness. When God lifted me up, I vowed to become the hand that pulls others from the darkness. SATCAO isn’t just an orphanage—it’s a family where broken hearts heal and forgotten dreams are reborn. Every time I see a child like Blessing graduate or Emmanuel build his first robot, I know our struggles matter. Join us. Be the light."

"Every morning, I see Zoe practicing her letters and Samuel polishing his football shoes. These small acts of hope are only possible because of you. Your donations don’t just feed mouths—they fuel futures. With every school fee paid, every medical camp funded, you’re writing a new story for Limbe’s children. We’re grateful, but the work isn’t done. Together, let’s rewrite more endings."

"SATCAO's life-changing work perfectly matches our goals. After seeing how our agricultural program helped children like Rooney (14) start a soap making business, we're excited to partner again - this time to bring computer literacy to more youth. Their proven results make them ideal partners for building Cameroon's future."

About SATCAO

A Legacy of Love & Transformation

Founded in 2005 by Mrs. Ngale Nalova Josephine, a retired police inspector turned philanthropist, SATCAO began as a small shelter for five street children in Limbe. Today, we operate seven residential centers across Cameroon, serving orphans, trafficking survivors, and children affected by HIV/AIDS and the Anglophone crisis.

Inspired by her own childhood struggles, Mrs. Ngale envisioned a place where no child would suffer neglect. Her motto: ‘Every life deserves dignity.’

Recognized by Cameroon’s Ministry of Social Affairs (Ref. 2007/193/L/MINAS).
