Mission Statement
"Yôyô International's mission is to empower youth in poverty, people with disabilities, orphans, and people without homes by helping them to thrive and transform themselves, their families' lives, and their communities. Yoyo International will equip and train people for economic empowerment through career and entrepreneurial training as well as bring people into relationship with God."
Description
Based in Omaha, Nebraska, USA, Yôyô International has built a network with connections around the world, from Benin, Togo, the Ivory Coast, Burkina Faso, and the Democratic Republic of Congo in Africa to the Dominican Republic and South Korea. We want to expand to these and other places in the world that have similar needs for our programs.
Our career and entrepreneurial programs will include job training, language, and business classes, tailored for the region, to help our students acquire employment or start their own businesses.
We also will have a music program and a soccer program to help young people build confidence and learn new skills, especially teamwork skills such as communication, time management, listening, collaboration, and leadership.
Our Entertainment program will give positive guidance to young people through a live or recorded program distributed online or via television in our target countries, along with live music tours that provide positive-values messaging.
Our travel program will put travelers to our target countries in touch with local guides to help them navigate lodging and transportation and learn about popular tourist destinations.
