Addressing At-Risk children and adolescents through Life-Skills Training, Psychosocial Support, Mental Health Awareness, S.T.E.M and IT Education, NBYF provides an opportunity for a healthier lifestyle.
Lady Esther, the founder and CEO of NBYF, believes “No nation can prosper without its youth making meaningful contributions in their communities”, therefore New Beginnings Youth Foundation aims to educate, support, and empower Nigeria’s youth so they may succeed and become future leaders.
Through Preventive and Empowered for Success programs, NBYF’s mission is to be the leading institution dedicated to creating positive pathways and opportunities for vulnerable youth.
