Cameroon: Footballer Donates Tennis Shoes
Cameroonian-born footballer, Jean Alain Boumsong Somkong, who plays for Juventus of Turin in Italy, recently donated 3000 pairs of tennis shoes to some underprivileged people in Yaounde, Douala and Limbe.
Boumsong came under the canopy of his NGO called ADNA that had been offered the gift by Salomon, a shoe-manufacturing firm.
In Douala, six associations benefited from the gesture - Main dans la Main (Home for Abandoned Children) at Bonamoussadi, Foyer St. Nicoline (Home for Street Children), Handisport (a sports association of handicapped persons), MUPAC (an association of aged persons), as well as AJERCAM and Femme Sante Environment.
The handing over ceremony of the gifts took place at the headquarters of Pari Mutuelle Urbain Camerounais, PMUC, a partner in the humanitarian activities of ADNA. PMUC was represented by its General Manager, Jean Dominique Casamarta. Speaking at the ceremony, Boumsong said any gift offered by ADNA is love.
