G.T.C Fonge was founded around the year 2000. It offers the 100 courses in 5 disciplines: building construction, wood working, account, home economics and electricity.

For many years, the team at the school was thinking of approach CIC for funding in order to help construct the classrooms to give all the disciplines the required space. In 2016, G.T.C Fonge has mobilized the community to prepare the land – a bulldozer was rented to clear and level the land and gravel has been collected. Help is mostly required to bring the required amount of sand and concrete to the remote site.

Construction of the classrooms in Fonge was completed just as the conflict in the region began. There are some finishing touches to be completed when CIC staff are permitted to travel to the village.

ICA delegation was not permitted to travel to the area since the construction of this school was completed. We look forward to meeting the students on a future trip to Cameroon.
