Kliptown Youth Program
From poverty to opportunity
Kliptown Youth Program (KYP) is located in Kliptown, Soweto, an area that has high rates of HIV/AIDS, unemployment, substance abuse, and food insecurity. KYP was formed by community members in 2007 to ensure young people become the architects of their own future.
It is one of the few organizations in the area providing a holistic range of services that focus on educational support and tutoring, nutrition, extra-curricular activities, mentorship for children, and work readiness training for unemployed graduates.
