Allegiance to our nation

“Working with the youth to tackle the unemployment problem in Uganda” was the theme for the Uganda national Labor Day celebrations in May 2014.

In the same month, Kyusa was officially registered with the intention of addressing the lack of economic opportunity among out of school youth, a clutch long ignored and isolated by society.
 Failure to advance with school renders one idle and can have a huge impact on their self-esteem if insufficient guidance is given. This has resulted into the increase of the prevalence of crime especially in the urban slums of around Kampala for “An idle mind is a devils workshop”

Having run our pilot class in June 2014, we are committed to empowering the out of school youth through a holistic program comprising eight modules that tackles life skills, entrepreneurship and employability skills. We turn the participant’s mind of hopelessness into the bliss of having to discover oneself and their passion and using the same passion to start up passion driven careers or even develop the competence to secure employment.

Having achieved a 35% increase in impact as compared to our 2015 annual target, the 80% employability among our program graduates gives us the honor of serving our nation through empowering young people and in turn reducing crime and increasing the country’s productivity.

Everyone is indebted to their nation! We are progressively paying our debt in the best way we know how.  We are very positive that reviewing our country’s education system at all levels by fixing life and soft skills into the curriculum will be a major step into defeating the Goliath of unemployment.

Our goal this year is to empower 200 youth with entrepreneurial, life and soft skills. We encourage you to partner with us in exercising our loyalty to our country. Contact us at Kyusa.uganda@gmal.com and together let us partake in “raising generations of change agents”.


For God and My County!
