Our Journey in Youth Development

Empowering Tomorrow’s Leaders, Today
Founded in 2020, Youth Builder Community Development Corporation was created with a powerful mission: to transform the lives of young people ages 14-18 through hands-on entrepreneurship, cutting-edge skills training, and dedicated mentorship.
Our journey began when we noticed a critical gap. While mentoring youth in our community, we discovered talented young people with creative energy—designing t-shirts, dreaming big—but lacking the technical skills and resources to turn their passions into sustainable careers. That’s when everything changed.
We refused to let potential go untapped. Today, we equip our youth with real-world skills that open doors for our youths.

The Growth and Impact of Our Organization

Since our inception, we have expanded our programs to include mentorship, workforce training, and AI technology initiatives. Our dedicated team and board of directors work tirelessly to provide youth with the resources necessary for achieving their entrepreneurial aspirations, directly impacting community development.
