Empowering Youth In Uganda

1

The Uganda Youth Initiative teaches young people skills to make a living and have a future. Skills such as carpentry, welding, sewing, hair braiding and more are taught to teens who are no longer in school. Covid had a great effect on this group with many not being able to complete their last year of school since the schools were closed. These young people had to wait two years for the possibility of returning to school to complete their education and for many this was not workable. There is now a large group of young people who are needing career options and this program provides that!
