About YouthBank International (YBI)

Over the last four years, YBI has worked with local host organisations and donors to develop and support the growth of over 175 YouthBanks operating in 21 countries.

These YouthBanks run grant programmes which young people themselves design and implement. They have supported over 1500 small scale projects which are aimed at improving the social, economic, environmental and cultural lives of their communities.

We are eager to further expand the proven impact and benefits of the YouthBank model and are actively seeking new partners to make this possible.

YouthBank's simplicity is its strength. 
Maybe think about it like a fitness plan for communities.
