YADEL AFRICA EDUCATIONAL DEVELOPMENT is a Youth Advocacy for Decisive Empowerment and Leadership. It is non-profit organization helping young people grow into healthy, happy, educated and productive adults.
Our Mission
We are a non-profit organization dedicated to helping young people, families, and communities across Africa reach their full potential by enabling them to overcome poverty and injustice to fulfil their dreams and ambitions.
Our Mission & Values
We are dedicated to providing opportunities for all young people across Africa to live better lives. Our donations are given to all people in need, without regard to their race, religion, or background. We strive to create a better world, and we thank all of you for helping us to achieve that. We were founded almost 10 years ago, by Edy Ewoh, the child of a low-income family, who grew up under the hostility of cruel environments, underprivileged, and socially deprived. Against the odds, Edy broke away from home very early in life to develop himself. He started his charitable activities by donating to young people who are struggling to make it through school; underprivileged city kids; and setting up small-scale businesses for families who are deeply in need. Since then, his activities have grown, prospered and expanded.
Technology & Innovation
We are inclusive in our partnership. We engage actively with organizations including leadership of people and communities we are seeking to help. We are desirous to make a lasting impact, continually learning and growing as authentic, ethical partners in our communities.
Finance & Investing
Employing and adjusting recent technologies of the rapidly developing world, we can provide young people, parents, and students with resources to improve learning and decision-making.
Partnering with Local Communities
We promote deep relational partnerships with like-minded private individuals and organizations to unravel potential sources and funding to scale up our work reaching beyond the capacity of traditional funding.
