Greetings,
Announcing Africa Rural Connect
Africa Rural Connect (ARC) is a project being implemented by the National Peace Corps
Association (NPCA) to support connections among the African Diaspora and improve the
livelihoods offarmers in Sub-Saharan Africa. The network will blend the inside knowledge of
_.-<..>A...c.,afns"."P·eace.Corps Volunteers, and .Africa scholars to.innovate wayuoJ2ring about positive
economic development in Africa.
I am writing to African community organizations such as yours to invite you and your members,
contacts, family, and friends to be involved in this exciting project.
NPCA is building an online community for ARC and once the website is established, the ideas,
suggestions, and data derived from the network will be used to inform development program efforts
that directly reach the poorest populations in Africa. It will focus on agriculture-related issues
including food production, storage, transportation, agribusiness, markets and market information,
and research. The project will benefit greatly from the involvement of first generation Africans who
want to share their stories about their home countries, and recommendations on the above topics,
with others in North America and around the world.
This summer, we will coordinate a contest with up to $50,000 in prizes for the best business plans to
improve agricultural practices in Sub-Saharan Africa.
If you would like to be a part of the Africa Rural Connect network, you can create a profile and start
networking with others dedicated to eradicating rural poverty in Africa. The virtual community will
launch in May 2009. Please share this information with your Diaspora contacts so that all who are
interested may be involved.
____ T~h.ankyou for our consideration and.J.lNQe thatyou will take art and s read the word. Please do
not hesitate to contact me with questions, comments, or to request more information. I look forward
to hearing from you.
Sincerely yours,
~~~

   MSU Recruiting Event in Cameroon Date Posted:   2008-09-24  
Ladies and gentlemen, fellow Cameroonian students;

The international student advisor here at Midwestern State University in Wichita Falls, Texas where i am currently enrolled will be making a trip to Cameroon from Sept 24th to help recruit F1 students for the university. Dr. Randy Glean is making this trip on the schools budget and will be having information sessions and symposium in 4 different Provinces (Littoral, South West, North West and the Center province). While in Cameroon he will have meeting sessions with the US consulate to help sell and advocate this international program that the school have been pursuing for years now. We all know how hard it is to get student visas from Africa as whole. Dr. Randy was in Nigeria last semeter and BEHOLD we had an influx of African students from that country. He has been to India, South Africa, Ghana (3X) and Sri Lanka. We thought this will be something nice if he could make a trip to Cameroon. A couple of students (Nelson Achu, Doreen Eta) here at MSU help convinced him to get a budget for a trip to Cameroon which was granted.
Okay that is too much info, but please call your love ones and ask them to make it to these info sessions. Application processing will be for the Spring and Fall of 2009 semesters. Bank Statements, application processing, and visa procedures will all be discussed at these venues.

NB: Dr. Randy IS NOT granting student visas but will be marketing for the school and eventually help facilitate the process with the consulate. See attached word document for venues and meeting times.
CONTACT Person in Cameroon who will be with Dr. Glean is Sigfried Achu Tel: 23799390751
Thank you for reading.
