YES Alumni Grant: WASH 4 Gender Equality and Education

Through the project, we provided clean drinking water to the boarding school, implemented cleanup activities, and delivered educational training to 50 high school students. The project’s events and activities made a positive impact on the lives of the students and the broader community. These young minds were the heart of our project, and their enthusiasm and potential fueled our efforts. By addressing their immediate needs for clean drinking water, a supportive learning environment, and education, we aimed to empower them to break barriers and achieve their full potential.

YES Alumni Grant: Agribusiness for Youth Empowerment

“”My dream is to have this project sustained through other support mechanisms and for it to eventually be expanded to a fully mechanized agribusiness that benefits the wider youth population and the nation. I will continue sharing stories of the impact of the project, not just to attract additional funds for expansion, but to inspire young people near and far to see agriculture and entrepreneurship as great avenues for employment and empowerment. I look forward to having this project transformed into a Community Based Agricultural and Humanitarian Organization after completion of the YES Grant” Allieu Christopehr Moiwa, U.S. State Department Exchange Alumnus (YES 2014)
