Why Donate??
To help tackle youth unemployment, for every $100 donated, you help one young person access a decent job, uplift them to support their family and contribute to their community. Each job opportunity is intentionally designed to address one of the significant issues, such as climate change, food insecurity, health challenges, oppressive policies, gender-based violence and unjust social systems.
“We exist to serve communities, not ourselves”.
YPO is at the forefront of creating employment and income opportunities for youth while also ensuring their inclusion in addressing challenges related to the environment and climate change, oppressive and discriminatory polices, food insecurity, health issues, gender-based violence, and unjust social systems to create a supportive environment.
