It all begins with basketball. And a Vision.
VisionC organizes an annual 5 day long overnight basketball camp for 100 kids in Douala, Cameroon along with a 3-day U20 basketball tournament and a coaches clinic preceding the camp.
VisionC Camp 2025 will be our 4th(!) camp.
VisionC proudly hosted its first camp in 2022 with subsequent annual basketball camps in the summers of ‘23 and ‘24.
The camps host boys and girls between the ages of 14-17 preselected across Cameroon for a free 5 day overnight basketball camp, comprised of activities, lessons, games, along with meals, housing and gear.
Impact Report 2022
Cameroon for 3 days
The camp brought kids from across Cameroon for 3 days to experience a taste of what basketball could be and an escape from their regular challenging summer hustles.
Platform to bond
Through the camp, we were able to create a platform for kids to bond and connect with other sharing the same passion.
Supplies
Each kid was able to receive brand new (not common) shoes, and basketball & school supplies.
Basketball Training
We helped improve basketball skills, build self-esteem and nurture dreams.
Vision to the Future
The camp was able to create momentum not only with campers but also in the local community and media outlets creating the positive space for future years.
