About us
YES Challenges empower young people to become changemakers and schools to become changemaking campuses. Young people form teams, receive a small trust based investment to start a project, build income & learn that they can change their world.
We organize YES Challenges globally 🌏. In just a few weeks, young people develop ideas & use the small investment to start a project, discover their self-efficacy and make a profit. Participants emerge stronger and more skilled. They engage in their community, build self-confidence and create opportunities for themselves & others.
The point is not for everyone to become an entrepreneur but rather for young people to quickly become aware of their Changemaker power.
If teams make a profit, we invite them to return the trust based invest so we can invite more young people to the YES Challenge. This way, young people become agents for change. The concept has been tested successfully with 20,000+ young people in Pakistan, Kenya, Zimbabwe & Mexico.
