Executive Director of Gift to Life Charity Organisation, Lord Lawson, says over one thousand individuals have benefited from their training programs so far.
The non-governmental organization says the rationale behind the exercise is to create jobs for the youth by training them in various entrepreneurial skills such as cake making, satellite training, shower gel and soap making, among others.
The NGO says it is bent on eradicating poverty by 80% while empowering the youth to be self-sufficient.
Executive Director of the foundation, Lord Lawson, indicated that the NGO will continue to train more youth in skill development.
“From 2020 till now, over a thousand individuals have benefited from our skill development agenda. This is the ninth time we are embarking on this training. As an organization, our major focus is to empower the youth by giving them jobs in the form of hand skills. For instance, one can decide to be an installer, a cake maker, among others. We also assist people with startups as well as educational support,” Executive Director of Gift to Life told Citi News.
Lord Lawson further indicated that the aim of the foundation is to bring hope to the youth.
Executive Director of World Inspiring Network Maxwell Odonkor expressed satisfaction with the collaboration between the two entities, adding that the training is not only focusing on equipping the youth with the necessary skills but empowering them with the vision to fight climate change to ensure a sustainable future for all.
“The partnership between the two organizations will go a long way to help the individuals we train to be eco-warriors of tomorrow. We will train them with the vision to fight climate change while ensuring that their business is successful,” Maxwell Odonkor added.
