Youths As Volunteers Integrated Netowrk Society (Yavin Society)

Description

The agency was founded by concerned Canadians led by Samson aimed at making fundamental changes in the lives of the people through youth initiatives, activities and participation. By empowering the youth we believe that the fundemental change cannot only be achived but can also be shared and sustained by all people, espcially those who are vulnerable in our communities.
