🌟 Empowering Our Youth Through Skills!

The campaign encouraged young people who are idle, affected by drug abuse, or negatively labelled as “ ” to consider vocational training as an opportunity to acquire skills, become self-reliant, and build a better future.

The activity brought together interested youth, Angaza youth leaders, the Bondeni Chief, Ward Administrator,community resource persons,institution management, and beneficiaries who shared their experiences.

We appreciate our partner for supporting this important initiative.

Let us give our youth skills, opportunities, and hope—not labels. Together, we can empower our young people to become productive members of our communities. 💪🏽🌍
