our founder
Elisabeth M. Mofor
Elisabeth is a proud citizen of the beautiful country of Cameroon. Her diverse education, both within country and abroad, has equipped her with the necessary skills to build multiple successful businesses within Cameroon. Her compassion for the elderly, together with her lengthy experience in real estate, has enabled her to develop this heartwarming concept; bringing purpose and joy-of-life back to the ageing, all while facilitating inter-generational transfer of culture and education. Inspired by her late mother, and driven by her passion for empowering the elderly, Elisabeth is motivated to the success of LAFTA.
