The youth groups' main plan is to help build the upbringing of all national and international youth in the community and to ensure they get the right support needed when needed. We organize meetings every month mainly to ensure that youth are keeping well and can attain adequate support; in terms of finding a job accommodation and emotional physical or financial supports. We usually get elders and priests who are in the community to come and deliver inspirational talks followed by recreational activities to encourage youth to become capable of working as a team and build themselves in every aspect. To ensure we get most youth within the community we usually conduct quarterly events such as BBQ picnics etc. so that they can interact and get to know each other. We also plan on taking up activities such as volunteering at soup kitchens and other non-profit organizations in the future.
