We are a role model organization creating social change through our self-financed model. This is possible through the organization’s enterprise to generate a surplus fund. Hence, we carry out our activities without depending on donor funding, which has proved sustainable. We have championed the Uganda, Burundi, Tanzania, and Kenya National Youth Parliaments and the East African Youth Parliament in partnership with the East African Legislative Assembly alongside the respective member states’ National Parliaments. They are bringing the voices of over 2000 youth to key decision-making platforms. Over 24 bills were tabled as a result, with 13 successfully passed.

These platforms have amplified youth voices, given them exposure, and increased their access to information. As a result, at least 48% of the young people in the parliaments have been inspired to run for elective positions, with a significant number of them winning, making the space a ground for mentorship. We have trained over 247 young people in entrepreneurship, 23 of whom have started successful businesses. We have also built the capacity of 10 Members of Parliament in leadership, communication, community organizing, and financial management.

As a result, seven districts formed community organizations which have helped in creating a conducive environment for community development initiatives. The Foundation has also dedicated itself to achieving the mission and vision of an independent and self-sufficient Africa that has empowered and socially engaged citizens who conserve their environment, heritage, and cultures. We believe youth are the most important sources of untapped potential for wealth creation, influence governance processes, and sustainable development.

Hence, we help facilitate the process of their empowerment, education, and engagement through increasing their access to information, financial opportunities, exposure to governance processes, and building 21st-century digital skills. We do this through our model & implement directly or through partnering & supporting various grassroot non-governmental organizations in respective societies of implementation.
