About us
Welcome to Engage Youth Foundation, a dynamic foundation devoted to empowering and mobilizing the youth to drive positive change. For the last few years, our founders have been actively engaged and volunteering for societal causes. During their volunteering experience, they met a lot of young passionate people who needed guidance, self-realization and more crucially a safe, inclusive and diverse platform to explore and experiment their ideas. EYF was established with keeping them in mind and with a clear vision; to actively engage young individuals, ignite transformative shifts within communities, and contribute to the creation of a promising and vibrant future.
We firmly believe in harnessing the boundless energy, creativity, and the potential of the youth to make a real impact in the world. EYF connects the needs of the community to the youth pool and at the same time channelizes ideas and actionable projects from young to benefit the society. Many current global and regional strategic projects running at full stream ahead are multi-generational. Climate change initiatives, carbon footprint reduction, space exploration, poverty elimination, universal healthcare access, sustainability, environmental conservation etc. fall under this category.
We have to play an active role in bringing youth to these initiatives, as they will be the beneficiaries and torchbearers of these projects. Along with these projects, EYF also believes in giving enough knowledge, education and ammunition while they are getting ready to fight for greater causes. This could come in the form of access to technology, mentorship, guidance, soft-skills development, financial literacy, leadership development, adopting a healthy lifestyle, survivorship skills, entrepreneurship etc.
Mission & Vision
Our Evolution
Our History
Engage Youth Foundation (EYF) was born from a vision that recognizes the untapped potential within the youth — a vision where every young individual had access to channels for engagement, exploration, and meaningful contributions to their communities. From its inception, EYF aspired to be more than an organization; it aimed to serve as a guiding force, inspiring the youth to become catalysts for positive change within their communities.
Initial Efforts
In its early days, EYF focused on envisioning a generation deeply engaged in community transformation. The belief in the intrinsic abilities, passion, and energy of the youth fueled the foundation's dedicated to providing inspiration, resources, and opportunities. The goal was clear: initiate a chain reaction that would instill a sense of accountability, self-direction, and community involvement that transcends generations.
Current Focus
Today, EYF stands at the forefront of channeling the vibrant energy of youth into communities. Through innovative initiatives, sustainable practices, and collaborative efforts, the foundation strives to infuse positivity, creativity, and a renewed spirit into every aspect of community life. It believes in enabling youth by connecting their passion, competency, and skill set to the pressing needs of society, fostering a symbiotic relationship.
A Supportive Journey
EYF acknowledges that the journey of youth is not always a linear path. It is okay to be undecided, confused, or still exploring options. The foundation stands as a pillar of support, encouraging experimentation, embracing failure, and guiding youth through their unique journeys.
Future Aspirations
As Engage Youth Foundation evolves, the aspiration remains to be a dynamic force that empowers youth to actively engage, explore, and contribute. Looking ahead, the foundation envisions a future where the impact of empowered youth echoes in every community, shaping a tomorrow filled with promise, innovation, and positive change.
