Committed to Sasse College, Our Communities, and the Future

Near the Buea Mountain, and high above the sea, stands Saint Joseph’s college SASSE (also known as SASSE College), the power house of education, knowledge and excellence, which glows incessantly on the majestic hill top upon which it was erected in 1939.  It is the premier of secondary and high school education in Cameroon, and undoubtedly one of the best in the African continent.

We are driven by these key goals:

Our Alma Mater

Cameroon’s Premier Institution of Boys’ Education Since 1939

Founded on February 1st,

1939, by the Mill Hill Missionaries in Buea, Southwest Cameroon.

First English-speaking college

in Cameroon, located at the foot of Mount Cameroon.

A Catholic, all-boys boarding school

offering secondary and high school education.

Sasse Anthem

O Sasse by the Mountain!
O Sasse by the Sea!

Sasse College Song

With St. Joseph ever near to guide us
We are safe whatever may betide us
From the storms and tempests he will guide us
In the hollow of his hand

One of the major goals

SOBA America is giving back to our alma mater.

Our philanthropic arm – Sasse Alumni Association, Inc. is a 501 C3 non-profit organization operating under the law. Its sole purpose is fundraising to allow us realize the projects we carry. Your DONATION is tax-deductible and it will go a long way towards changing the life of a young boy in Cameroon.

Since these young students are tomorrow’s leaders, your DONATION will make a difference around the world. With one small DONATION, you can change many lives. Together, we can, in the words of the late pop star Michael Jackson, we can “heal the world; make it a better place for you and for me and the entire human race. There are people dying. If you care enough for the living, make a better place for you and for me.”

Without the computer lab that was donated by SOBA USA, I would not have the computer skills I have today. Thank you all so much.

I remember when SOBANS from America came to hand over the water project. We did not have any running water in Sasse. Thanks to SOBA America, we were able to take showers, wash our clothes and live like normal people.

Thanks to SOBANS in America, I was able to graduate from Sasse. My parents had trouble paying my school fees and I was about to be kicked out from school, until the SOBA America scholarship saved me. Thank you SOBA America.
