C-Life
stands for Christian Life. We are an African-led, non-profit Christian organization.
We exist to develop the next generation of African servant leaders, spiritually and professionally for the marketplace in Africa. Cameroon is the first African country we serve.
C-Life’s mission is to build integrity and professional excellence in Africa by developing young God-fearing servant leaders.
Our dream is to see these youths improve their holistic quality of life and that of their communities while creating a striving transparent economic ecosystem that broadens business opportunities and reduces poverty levels.
Our strategy is to provide community based biblical discipleship and professional training to young aspiring nation builders, to unleash their potential for greater career competency and community transformation through the eyes of a biblical worldview.
Foundation Verse: We stand on this verse said by Christ Jesus, “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full”(John 10:10).
