After a master of science degree in IT management in 2004 and a degree in Entrepreneurship at HEC (French leading business school), I have been a volunteer (French equivalent to Peace Corps) since October 2005 and till September 2007 in Maroua, Cameroon, as manager and fundraiser for local private social organizations.
During these two years I am responsible for fundraising and the relationships with international organizations that finance our projects. This experience was for me the best opportunity to use the skills, know-how and knowledge I have acquired and developed during my education in order to help people in need.
Working in the field of fundraising for NGOs is a challenge where I had to sell our projects to international granters that are very solicited, in order to ensure the sustainability of the Fondation Bethléem de Mouda. With this opportunity I had the opportunity conceal my will of helping people for two years and still act as an entrepreneur.
I am know preparing my return in France for October 2007
