According to Isaac S. Koroma, the Public Relations Officer of Youth Rise Above, the organization has been actively working to support young people in the region over the past year. This includes initiatives such as skills training programs, educational scholarships, and community development projects.
“It has been an incredibly rewarding and transformative year for Youth Rise Above,” Koroma stated. “We set out with a mission to create meaningful change for the youth of Pujehun District, and I’m thrilled to say that we have made significant strides towards that goal.”
Building on this momentum, Youth Rise Above is now set to host the free business entrepreneurship training program from July 12-13, 2024. The training will take place at the organization’s compound on 31 Jah Street in Pujehun Town, with sessions running from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm each day.
