A Foundation for Change · Nigeria
From youth empowerment to disability inclusion — CHYCF is restoring hope and building communities that refuse to be left behind.
Restoring hope. Empowering lives. One community at a time.
To empower youths and vulnerable groups through education, skills development, advocacy, humanitarian support, and strategic partnerships that promote social justice, inclusion, and sustainable development.
Our Vision
To build a society where youths and vulnerable populations are empowered, inclusive opportunities are guaranteed, and every individual can live with dignity, hope, and purpose.
Leadership training, entrepreneurship, digital and ICT skills, mentorship, and civic education — giving young Nigerians the tools to own their futures.
Support for vulnerable families, emergency relief, charitable outreach, and community health awareness — meeting people where they are.
Advocating for inclusive policies, building capacity for persons with disabilities, and driving awareness for a truly accessible society.
Educational support, workshops, seminars, and literacy initiatives — because learning is the foundation that every other change is built on.
Civic engagement, policy advocacy, stakeholder dialogue, and community peacebuilding — because lasting change requires a seat at the table.
Awareness campaigns, stigma reduction, and direct aid for individuals living with HIV — because dignity and access to care are non-negotiable rights.
Youths, women and children, persons with disabilities, individuals living with HIV, and vulnerable or marginalised communities — and every community-based group that's been told their turn hasn't come yet. It has.
Every number is a person. Every person is a story.
Before this foundation found our community, I had no idea how to start a business. Today I run a small farm and feed my family.
I never touched a computer before this programme. Now I can type, use the internet, and I'm applying for office jobs. CHYCF changed my direction.
The women's programme gave me language for rights I always had but never knew how to claim.
