From the above, you will understand that the activities of Cameroon Link are purely humanitarian and similar to those of WOCOTOMADI, which is a non-profit making and charitable organization registered in the USA only in July 2011 in Massachusetts, Unites States of America. According to the activity sheet already presented, WOCOTOMADI is assisting the most vulnerable populations of Cameroon to improve on their well being, living standard, attainment of education and perfect health. - WOCOTOMADI works for the prevention of poverty, hunger and diseases, - WOCOTOMADI promotes education for all - WOCOTOMADI promotes gender equality, better conditions of Women, old peresons. That is what Cameroon Link does and for several years, Ms. Julienne SIWE Ngongang, the founding president of WOCOTOMADI, has continued to devote most of her time thinking about the opportunity to show case her esteem for the marginalized. The primary mission of your organization is to help the vulnerable and fight against extreme poverty without moving away from the major concern of governments and international organizations to contribute to the education of all around the world , extension of the New Information and Communication Technology. Agriculture which is the cornerstone of the third world economy, is promoted as a means to fight against hunger through viable action plans and research developed with other international organizations like the UNDP, WHO, and the FAO.

From the above, it is clear that the World Coming Together to Make a Difference, resulted from much thought when it started to realize that sustainable development cannot be achieved without the fight against extreme global poverty, promotion of health for all, education of all, the promotion of the use of ICT at all levels to improve exchange of information internationally, and also to create an atmosphere of love, harmony and solidarity among peoples around the world.
