The Solution

Our current efforts are focused on addressing the critical need for a fully functional multipurpose facility within the community of Tuseh, Meta Momo Division NWR Cameron, Africa. John Retreat Foundation International USA, Inc. has become the proud recipient of two hundred acres of land that were generously donated by John Ticha and Ma Salome Ticha for the purpose of creating a center that will provide lifelong educational services and support for men and women of all ages and economic standing.

Our directors believe that it is imperative that we go back to basic, the beginning; from how we were created and implement the strategies God has created from inception to develop our baby geniuses for the future. In so doing, we will begin a process for a generation of geniuses so that our rural families, leaders, villages rural communities, regions and our nation can begin a new path of sustainable economic growth and development. Genesis 1: God created Adam out of the dust of the ground…. Multiply and be fruitful.

In the process of developing our children, rural families, and community leaders into self-sufficient members of society, we must also adhere to the sanctity of life and instill in our children the Word of God and the reverence for life because we were made in the image of God. We must always affirm our children by using the Word of God to speak positively (prophetically) into their lives, while walking in the footsteps of God our creator who “Spoke” and the world was created.

Our representatives are currently seeking the support required to begin construction of the facility and to have all proposed services fully operational by October of 2016. Our modern and fully equipped center will include a Regional Cultural and Exchange Department, Recreational Facilities, Adult and Community Literacy Department, Women and Girls Department, Vocational Training Center, Farmer’s Markets, access to clean water, Computer Labs, and a Food Bank Center for economically vulnerable community members.

In order to reach our target demographic in the most efficient manner possible, our directors will also utilize a portion of the funding obtained to construct public roads and bridges that will enable families to visit the center for their education, health, social, and employment needs.

To build a community center requires hiring an architect that has previous experience in planning and developing a large community center. The architect that we hire will also be experienced with laws and regulations that will be required for inspection by the local government. John Retreat Foundation International USA, Inc. not only cares about the health and well-being of our community’s residents, but the environment as well. Therefore our goal is to build a facility that will operate in the most Eco-friendly manner as possible. Our aspiration is to run a center efficiently, resulting in further cost-effectiveness, while also reducing our footprint on the environment.
