Our Goal.. Your success.

The Greening Youth Foundation Africa's (GYFA) purpose is to involve young people who are often underrepresented, while helping them connect with the natural world and careers linked to taking care of our environment. GYFA's education programs are rooted in local cultures and involve children from nearby communities, helping them learn about healthy living and making good choices to create a healthy community as a whole. GYFA strongly believes that young people from diverse backgrounds can find valuable career opportunities in managing state and federal lands. That's why we're dedicated to forming strong partnerships with organizations that manage these lands, offering chances for young people to serve and intern, which opens doors to careers in conservation.
