OUR VISION

 

To Empower Young People to improve their Communities through Entrepreneurship and Partnerships

 

 "....Young people making a difference for young people and their Communities...."

 

Please see "Our Aims" for the concept and practical delivery.

 

WHAT'S DIFFERENT ?

 

Simple - young people create the facilities that they will then use.

 

"Don't touch that wall - I built it"

 

Young people help create and take ownership of the facilities, sharing the real day to day responsibilities.... leaders, trustees, directors and managers are created from those who have come up "through the ranks" and earned respect.

 

As a result, they are able to then help others to do the same.

 

It is not something being "done" for "them" as many youth projects are ....
