The path to Fako America ’94 was marked by intense mobilization efforts within the Cameroonian community, culminating in the convention held between July 29-31, 1994. This historic event featured passionate and in-depth deliberations, discussions on indigenous entrepreneurial initiatives in Fako, and methods to promote Fako languages. It also marked the birth of a new organization called Fako America. The convention included a successful cultural evening and a gala that involved the entire Cameroonian Community in St. Paul and Minnesota.
