Make impact

Africa has the largest young population in the world, with half of our population under thirty-five years old and two-thirds of these young people don’t have a formal job.

We believe this must change and are determined to work hard in equipping as much youths as possible with skills for a better living.

Train 500,000 youths in Africa by 2026.
