Please see the details attached and encourage youth groups/youth CBOs to at least take this first step. You will note that this is a fairly simple call/request that seeks to see ideas that can be supported. Once the ideas are submitted, we will invite proposals and also provide mentoring to enable the youth group applicants develop those ideas to “profitability”.
We are pleased to announce our 8th Call for Application for the Youth to Youth Entrepreneurship Fund, a competitive grant scheme for youth-led organizations proposing innovative project ideas on how to contribute to increasing entrepreneurship and employment amongst their peers. This competition is open to all youth-led organizations in Kenya. Grants of US$ 5,000 to 50,000 (approximately KShs 375,000 and KShs 3,750,000) will be awarded to the most innovative proposals chosen by the Grant Approval Panel.
