The Youth Bakery Project is a confectionary production initiative among youth in Mpigi district. The project aims at creating employment for youth through making and selling of confectionaries such as doughnuts, cakes, crisps, etc. Currently the youth are making doughnuts and selling them in their community. The youth have a dream of setting up a fully equipped bakery to enable them increase their production as well as brand their products better to tap into bigger markets. The project is also equipping youth with life skills such as business and finance management, branding and marketing, savings mobilisation and leadership.
CorpsAfrica addresses two of Africa’s most difficult challenges: engaging youth and helping rural communities overcome extreme poverty. We recruit and train motivated volunteers to live and work in rural, under-resourced areas in their own countries. They collaborate with the community to design and implement small-scale projects that address their top priorities and, by doing so, gain the skills and experience that lay the foundation for personal and professional success.
CorpsAfrica trusts youth and communities to help each other.
