Our Programs

Young Boy Awake (YBA) runs purpose-driven programs that equip boys with the mindset, skills, and support to thrive.

From classrooms and football fields to creative spaces and community forums, we engage boys through mentorship, mental health advocacy, talent development, and real-world career exposure.

Our work meets them where they are-and helps them grow into who they’re meant to be.

Mentorship Initiatives

We go to different schools and communities giving mentorship sessions that tackle identity, self-discipline, career guidance, and emotional development —giving boys a safe space to grow.

Mental Health Awareness

We break the silence around boys’ mental health through workshops, open forums, and school outreach. Topics include anger, suicide prevention, self-worth, and trauma.

Sports Development & Careers

Through football and other sports, we teach teamwork, responsibility, and goal setting while exposing boys to careers in coaching, media, physiotherapy, and more.

We raise awareness and take action through outreach campaigns in poetry and education, addressing issues like rape culture and hygiene.

Your donations provide essentials to boys in need across Zambia.
