MORE ABOUT OUR CHOSEN CHARITY
YouMeWe educates care home children in IT giving them employable skills for adult life (click on logo for more). They offer support programs to allow a child to become a productive, independent young adult in their community. They help develop skills like language, writing and digital literacy, thus increasing self-confidence. They also help with tutoring, internship opportunities, and guidance on higher education. Attained skills, improved communication, and an understanding of options give the kids a clearer future. Not only that but the kids give back themselves by educating the elderly in their communities in the use of modern day devices. A complete cycle of giving back!
