WE as YAZ Trust we firmly believe that our story will never be a success story without the considerable efforts, zeal, passion and participation of the alienated and deprived youths in the grassroots in our development programmes.Our ability to continue and expand our work, depends on the grants and gifts we receive from foundations ,co-operating organisations and individuals like you.

 Many youths remain trapped in a cycle of grinding poverty through social, economic and political exclusion and ‘inclusion’ which makes them vulnerable to policy shifts either through planning or through implementation.  Marginalisation therefore takes its toll as a result of the generational divide which is exclusionary in nature. This scenario therefore further disempowers the youth whilst the older generation continues to bury their heads in the sand. The quest to reach the Proverbial Promised land therefore remains a far cry if not an elusive dream.We believe the youth are the leaders of today and not future leaders of tommorow.
