Soweto Youth Initiative - Nairobi

Soweto Youth Initiative is a registered community-based organization. It was started in 1999 by Julius Odero as a scout movement club by the name of “Soweto Club”. It later changed to the name we know today, as the organization grew beyond the scout movement. Its main aim is to nurture and empower the community and its youth, as well as people with a disability, so that they all can become responsible citizens through social, physical and spiritual development. We believe that by investing in education, skills development, and mentorship, we can break the cycle of poverty and create a brighter future for the community.
