LAFTA Improves the quality of life for the Ageing in Cameroon and Beyond.
Living Alternative for the Aging (LAFTA) is a nonprofit organization in Cameroon (Africa), empowering the elderly to live with dignity and purpose, ensuring they remain active contributors to their communities and society.
Volunteer with us to make a difference.
LAFTA serves as a welcoming community center open daily, providing access to essential resources, wellness programs, and opportunities for socialization.
Here, the elderly can connect with others, receive care and guidance, and engage in meaningful activities that promote both physical and emotional well-being. Beyond our center, LAFTA contributes to surrounding villages through outreach, support services, and partnerships that improve living conditions and promote inclusion for elderly individuals who may not have easy access to care or social networks.
How Your Contributions Make a Difference
Health Care
Your support provides dental, vision, and general medical care for the elderly. Funding goes toward purchasing medical equipment, medicines, and supplies, as well as paying professional doctors and caregivers who offer regular checkups and treatment.
Activities and Engagement
We create opportunities for the elderly to stay active and engaged through sensory items, light fitness and mobility exercises, and recreational activities that encourage movement, laughter, and connection.
Socialization and Wellness
Our center provides a safe and welcoming space where the elderly can gather, play games, sing, share stories, and enjoy one another’s company. These moments of joy and friendship make a lasting difference in emotional and mental well-being.
Food and Supplies
Your donations help provide food and essential supplies that are distributed to local villages. These outreach efforts ensure elderly individuals who cannot travel to the center still receive nutrition, care, and connection from our team.

Message from the Founder
As a proud citizen of the beautiful nation of Cameroon, I founded Living Alternative for the Aging (LAFTA) out of a deep respect for our elderly and a strong belief that they deserve to live with dignity, purpose, and care
The elderly hold the wisdom, values, and experiences that shape our families and communities, yet too often they are forgotten or left without support. At LAFTA, we are changing that narrative. Our center was created to give the elderly a place to belong — a place where they are seen, valued, and celebrated.
Through health care, daily activities, and outreach to local villages, we help them live fuller lives while continuing to contribute to the development of our society. Your support helps us make this possible. Every contribution, no matter the size, allows us to reach more elderly individuals, provide essential resources, and create lasting change in communities across Cameroon and the Central African region.
From my heart, and on behalf of everyone at LAFTA, thank you for believing in our mission and standing with us as we work to bring hope and dignity to those who once carried our communities forward.
