Empower 70 Kibera Youth to Become Self-Sufficient

Organization information

Uweza Aid Foundation

Location: New York, United States of America

Summary

This project will create jobs, start businesses, and develop opportunities for 70 young men and women ages 18 to 25 living in the Kibera slum - ultimately reducing unemployment among this vulnerable age group and starting them on a path toward self-sufficiency and a better future for themselves and the entire community. We work with each individual program participant to discover their skills and interests and develop a route out of poverty that best utilizes their own inherent strengths.
