Make a young dream reality

Breaking the cycle of poverty through the youth of africa

We focus on the youth in Africa to achieve their dreams and to add to the health and wealth of their community.

Young Dream Africa is a nonprofit organization that envisions an African continent where every youth has an opportunity to achieve their dream, flourish and break the existing cycle of poverty.

what we believe

To teach someone to fish you give them fishing gear and instruction, but also first a few fish

From financial training, we do have a program to offer micro-loans for women and young people to start small enterprises.

We do believe in a sustainable approach to uplifting our community.

Thank you for giving me a chance to finish my high school.

“Poverty is a chance for compassion. We may not be able to eradicate poverty completely, but we can break the existing patterns, by growing and showing compassion for each other.”

Allan

We should be passionate about improving the well-being of African communities; a lot more focus should be placed on providing quality resources, more direct access, and education to ensure this vision is made a reality.

Maryosa Foundation is a Netherlands-based not-for-profit organisation, working for a world full of self-reliant people, who continuously motivate and support each other.

YDA partners with them to facilitate their activities on the ground in Kenya.
