About Us
YesHub Foundation is a non-governmental organization committed to creating positive change in the lives of vulnerable populations across Africa, with a particular focus on West Africa. Headquartered in Katsina State, Nigeria, we work directly with youths, women, children, migrants, and persons with disabilities (PWDs).
Mission: Our mission is to empower marginalized communities through comprehensive and sustainable programs that address their diverse needs, encompassing entrepreneurship, health, agriculture, digitalization, vocational skills, education, peace building and shelter, ultimately fostering self-reliance and community-led development.
Vision: We envision a future where every individual in Africa, irrespective of their background or circumstances, has equitable access to opportunities and resources, enabling them to lead healthy, prosperous, and fulfilling lives within inclusive, peaceful societies.
Objectives:
• Entrepreneurship & Economic Empowerment: To provide training, mentorship, and access to resources for individuals to establish and grow successful businesses, fostering financial independence and economic growth.
• Health & Wellbeing: To promote health awareness, improve access to healthcare services, and support preventative health initiatives.
• Sustainable Agriculture: To support sustainable farming practices, promoting food security and economic opportunities within agricultural communities.
• Digitalization and Technology Inclusion: To provide digital literacy programs and access to technology, bridging the digital divide and empowering individuals to participate in the digital economy.
• Vocational Skills Training: To offer skills development programs that equip individuals with marketable skills, enhancing their employability and economic prospects.
• Education and Capacity Building: To increase access to quality education and life-long learning opportunities, empowering individuals with the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed.
• Peace Building & Conflict Resolution: To foster peaceful co-existence by empowering communities with conflict resolution and dialogue skills, thus contributing to stability and security.
