ABOUT US

We empower young people to build a responsible and independent society.

OUR STORY: From Inspiration to Action

In 2008, inspired by the transformative power of youth development programs, Violet Ayoub, a passionate leader, envisioned an organization that would empower all Tanzanian youth, regardless of background. Fueled by this vision, Violet, alongside a dedicated team, turned their dream into reality. From humble beginnings within a local church community, Vision for Youth (V4Y) blossomed into a registered non-profit in 2011, reaching out to youth in villages, towns, and cities across Tanzania.
