CEPOW is a registered non-profit organization (reg. no. 004/e.29/1111/vol.8/ALPAS) with Head-Office in Bamenda, Cameroon. CEPOW is an off-spring of Obama Friends Cameroon a CIG founded in October 2008. In 2017 Obama Friends Cameroon (OFC) saw a need to engulf a wider perspective and broaden the organization’s scope.
With new ideas and expertise in the management team, a broader agenda was set for the organization. The name was modified from Obama Friends Cameroon (OFC) to Crusaders for Environmental Protection and Ozone Watch (CEPOW) to meet the new agenda geared towards environmental protection.
