Our purpose

Why the Society exists

Founded on the conviction that transparency, accountability, integrity, participation and teamwork are what make a society strong and prosperous.

Vision

To build a united, empowered and prosperous community where members achieve financial stability, personal growth and social well-being through mutual support and collective effort.

Mission

To promote financial empowerment, mutual assistance, welfare support, social responsibility and community development through transparent and sustainable programmes that improve the quality of life of members and society.

What we do

Six areas of work

The Society runs programmes across six areas. Each one exists to serve a specific objective set out in our constitution, and each is approved and reviewed by the General Assembly.

Core values

What guides us

Twelve values are written into our constitution. They are not decoration — they are the standard officers are held to and the basis on which members can be sanctioned.

Unity Integrity Transparency Accountability Mutual support Respect Teamwork Compassion Financial responsibility Inclusiveness Community service Collective growth
Governance

Run by its members, accountable to them

No officer decides alone and no fund moves unwatched. The structure below is set by the constitution, not by convenience.

1

The General Assembly is supreme

Every member has a voice and a vote. The Assembly elects the Executive Committee, approves budgets and programmes, sets fees, and can amend the constitution or dissolve the Society.

Quorum: half of financially active members, plus one

2

Elected officers, fixed terms

An eleven-seat Executive Committee runs day-to-day affairs. Officers are elected by secret ballot and serve two years, renewable once — so leadership turns over by design.

Two-year terms, renewable once

3

Money is watched

Funds may only be used for the Society's objectives. Withdrawals need at least two authorised signatories, accounts are audited periodically, and financial reports go to the Assembly every year.

Two signatories required on every withdrawal

4

Disputes are heard

Disagreements go first to mediation by the Conflict Resolution Committee, then to the General Assembly. No member is expelled without a fair chance to defend themselves.

Mediation first, no expulsion without a hearing

Members voting by show of hands at a General Assembly meeting

The General Assembly meets at least once every calendar year. An extraordinary meeting can be called by the President, by the Executive Committee, or by one-third of active members — so the membership can convene itself without waiting for permission.

Common questions

What kind of organisation is MutualRise Society?

A voluntary, non-profit, non-political and non-religious association, constituted under Law No. 90/053 of 19 December 1990 governing associations in the Republic of Cameroon. It exists to serve its members and their communities, not to generate profit for anyone.

Who can become a member?

Anyone who accepts our aims and objectives, agrees to abide by the constitution, completes the registration process, pays the approved registration and membership fees, and is of good character. Membership is never denied on the basis of tribe, ethnicity, race, religion, gender, disability, social status, political opinion or nationality.

Who decides how the Society is run?

The General Assembly — all members — is the supreme decision-making organ. It elects the Executive Committee, approves policies, budgets, annual accounts and programmes, sets membership fees, and admits or expels members. An Annual General Meeting is held at least once a year, and an extraordinary meeting can be called by the President, the Executive Committee, or one-third of active members.

How is the Society's money handled?

All funds are used solely to achieve the Society's objectives. Accurate records are maintained, withdrawals require at least two authorised signatories, accounts are audited periodically, and annual financial reports are presented to the General Assembly. No officer may use Society funds for personal purposes.

Where does the Society's income come from?

Registration fees, membership subscriptions, voluntary contributions, special levies approved by the General Assembly, donations and gifts, grants, sponsorships, fundraising, project funding, and other lawful activities the Society approves.

Are member benefits guaranteed?

No. The constitution is explicit on this point: benefits provided by the Society are privileges subject to its rules, not private entitlements. Loans, savings schemes, emergency support, scholarships and welfare benefits are each governed by regulations approved by the General Assembly, including eligibility conditions and repayment procedures.
