HISTORY

Nkumu Fed Fed (NFF) is a female apolitical, non-profit, and non-governmental networking association of women’s groups with headquarters in Bali, Mezam Division of the North West Region of Cameroon. Created in 1982 as a FED FED group of less than 20 members in the city of Limbe in the South West Region of Cameroon, the organisation has grown to a network of sister-groups established in 1996 and gained official recognition under the Cameroon Law of Association on the 26th of October 2000 with Registration No 0024/E29/1111/Vol.8/APPB.

With a membership of over 300, NFF has today been conferred the recognized status of a non-governmental organisation by Ministerial Decision No. 062/A/MINATD/DAP/SDLP/SONG of 2011. With its seat in Bali Nyonga, the organisation has 15 networking branches located in the national territory and abroad, specifically in Bamenda, Buea, Douala, Limbe, Kumba, Mamfe, Yaounde, Atlanta, Delaware, Germany, Midlands, Oklahoma, Texas, UK, and Washington DC. 

Established at its creation with the vision of improving the livelihood of vulnerable groups notably women and children in the rural community of Bali Nyonga in the Northwest Region, Nkumu Fed Fed today has grown beyond this limited vision and scope of intervention and carries out local, national and international activities with multi-tier impacts in changing the lives of the vulnerable children and communities, and influencing national and international policy reforms of governments and funding partners.
