Global Center for Youth Futures
GCYF
securing the Futures of Young People Worldwide
About us
The GCYF mission is critical because half of the world is under 30 years old with no guarantees to an adequate livelihood. Stuck in poor health, poverty, and conflict traps, they are facing an infinitely deferred transition to normal adulthood.
We are out in the world— listening closely to young people, filling gaps in knowledge, and advocating for their futures. Our goal is for youth to be able to harness their own energies and become self-starters, problem-solvers, initiative-takers, and positive change makers.

Help break the cycle of poverty - Donate to Edu For Every Child!
GCYF is stepping up to empower young people to help themselves since their dignity and wellbeing cannot depend on struggling governments, intermittent aid, and the charity of others.
