La Famille Bamileke d'Atlanta

Welcome to the website of La Famille Bamileke d’Atlanta, also known as LAFABA Atlanta. LAFABA Atlanta was established in the year 2012 (previously ASIMBA) as a Bamileke Association in the Atlanta Metropolitan Area. A Bamileke is a person whose ancestral heritage is from the Western Region of Cameroon. For purposes of our association, a Bamileke includes a person born of Bamileke parent(s), a person adopted by Bamileke parent(s), or a person affiliated by marriage to a Bamileke.

LAFABA Atlanta was created with a special emphasis on solidarity, mutual love, peace, and friendship among its members. The premise of the association is to treat each other like brothers and sisters, to be there for each other in times of happiness and in times of need, and to seek to bring together all Bamileke sons and daughters within the Atlanta Metro Area and the State of Georgia as a whole.

A fundamental element of LAFABA Atlanta is its family orientation. We function as a family unit where everyone is treated as brothers and sisters. LAFABA Atlanta is a community of people who care about each other, and care deeply about our brothers and sisters in the Western Region of Cameroon. The association is committed to maintaining its family-oriented environment  as the root of its existence.
