John Dumelo donates supplies to deprived school in Cameroon

Ghanaian leading man, John Dumelo donated
school supplies including pencils, chalks,
erasers and exercise books to over 100 pupils
of St. John Of God Catholic School in
Cameroon, via his John Dumelo Foundation.
The school, located in a town called
Bonadikombo, around where the actor had
been filming, also got an unspecified amount
of money to help in running the school.
John Dumelo visited Cameroon right after his
short trip to the US, and he was in the coastal
town of Limbe where he shot a movie as well
as part of his upcoming reality TV show. He
promised to go back to help renovate the
school building. More photos after the cut...
This is the second country outside Ghana that
the actor and fashion entrepreneur has
expanded operations to. He has also been in
Sierra Leone, where he did similar donations
about 3 months ago. In Ghana, he has
donated to schools in rural areas including the
North, Eastern, Western And Central Regions.
According to John, “I also started the John
Dumelo Scholarship Scheme for university
students starting with the University of Ghana
last year. Hopefully more students will be
included in this scheme in the coming
academic years.”
So far all the activities of the foundation in the
last 5 years of existence have been self-
funded by John Dumelo.
