Living in poverty, opportunities and adequate employment can be hard to come by. Many youths don’t have the basic skills needed to find or start work.

With a loss of hope and direction, unemployed youth often turn to gang affiliation or drugs, continuing a life of poverty that has lasted for generations.

When you make a gift to our employment programs, you’re helping in fostering entrepreneurship skills to help youth learn how to start and operate a small business, so they generate income through self-employment.

We train youths in juice processing and packaging, cosmetics making, bakery, yoghurt making, among others.
