The Youth welfare Association is an organization which is involved in youth activities. These activities include informing them the importance of development, education, environmental issues, agricultural and skills trainings. We organize events to help the needy students and those who are sick so as to help pay their bills either at schools or hospitals. We sensitize them with the importance of skill jobs if they are not in school or a drop out. In other words, we give them courage that there is still life despite not being able to get jobs or out of school.
