Our Priorities
Building a Lifelong BOBA Community
Bali College was founded in 1949 by the Basel Mission to train young Cameroonians for Christian leadership. It became Cameroon Protestant College (C.P.C.) in 1957 after the Basel and Baptist Missions began running it together. Former students later formed the Bali Old Boys Association (BOBA) in Buea in 1974, and alumni in the United States officially established BOBA-USA in Washington, DC, in 1993 after first organizing a pilot group in 1989.
