Meet The Founder

From the Founder's Desk

The Mission and Vision for Golden Brains' Youth Foundation arose as a result of the experience I had growing up where lack of funds nearly terminated my life dreams.

I started Golden Brains' Youth Foundation with the aim of helping indigent young ones to achieve their dreams in life.

I had watched too many brilliant classmates quietly disappear from school, not because they lacked ability, but because nobody was standing behind them.

I also saw talented youths who couldn't get polished learning about their craft making them to be deficient and impoverished.

More so, youths were seen struggling with low capital bases while engaging in their various businesses.

All these led to the Mission of Golden Brains' Youth Foundation as follows:

  • To give scholarships to deserving indigent youths as well as to buy study materials and give stipends.
  • To sponsor the dreams of our artisans by taking them to learning centers where they will be polished alongside stipends also given to them.
  • To promote entrepreneurs by giving 0%-interest loans to struggling businesses.

Today the foundation works across several communities.

My principle has not changed as I want to know each young person by name as every beneficiary is assigned to a reputable volunteer for proper supervision who then reports back to me.

My ambition for the society is simple. Every community we enter should, in time, no longer need us, because the young people we trained would have become the sponsors, volunteers, mentors, the employers and the leaders we envisage.

Therefore, seeing the enormous work that's facing us, I urge you to kindly support financially and also become a volunteer so that the vision for Golden Brains' Youth Foundation will be realized.
