Vision Build a sustainable independent organization that is able to succeed in its mission to empower disadvantaged youth and truly creates a visible change in the communities we are active in, through self-funding and social entrepreneurial activities. By creating the right facility for YETS Ghana at an appropriate location we can increase and optimize YETS Ghana's impact. Objective Have youth with an increased risk of being cut off from society to participate in a sports programme that can strengthen their (social) skills and improve their self-esteem so they will be able to independently function in the community and make a positive contribution to it. This is based on the three pillars: sport, education and social Integration. Sports activities as the central pillar, participants are supported in various ways in their education, and develop both soft skills and practical initiatives to promote their social integration.
