  Women in rural North West Region of Cameroon are considered the poorest of the poor, thus poverty is described to have a woman’s face. Furthermore, the majority of the limited number of Women entrepreneurs are in micro-enterprises and many of them lack business development skills and managerial capacity for improved competitiveness and management. These challenges are threatening development advances such as the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals. Our organization strives to complement efforts made by international development partners and governments to end all forms of violence against women and girls. However, to source funding from donor agencies has become very competitive. Hence, the need for strong, viable and winning project proposals to access the dwindling available funds from relevant donor agencies. That is where the services of the volunteers become indispensable. After the successful collaboration for this assignment, the online volunteers will be awarded certificates of appreciation, and their input shall be mentioned in relevant publications of the organization.
