Changing with Eastleighwood

Eastleighwood aims at increasing the level of awareness
among communities through information sharing using different platforms. It
also seeks to establish strategic partnerships and sustainable network with
other stakeholders from private/ public sectors to promote peace and social
economic empowerment. Lastly, it promotes vocational/crash program trainings
for youth with formal and informal education, but with special needs.
A breakdown of the organization’s activities would include
trainings in photojournalism, videography, basic computer studies and
languages. Mentorship on life skills and entrepreneurial skills. Nurturing
talent, that is providing a platform where artists models, dancers and youth
alike can showcase and grow talent. Lastly, keeping track of how far the knowledge
provided led the youth.
Since the organization’s existence, with no discrimination
of race or gender, over 10973 youth have been successfully trained and equipped
with skills. Skills enabling them access to employment and at the same time
being self-employed. Some youth even go the extra mile to serve and volunteer
in organizations. Here, they not only build their resumes and genuinely give a
helping hand, but they also become role models to other youth in the society.
Two youth express their experience having being at
Eastleighwood… “We were taught how to shoot videos, how to act, how to make
films, documentaries, script writing and all that. We have benefited a lot from
this training and hope to introduce many things… I would like to tell my fellow
youth to make the most of this training at Eastleighwood , it feels like home
and is open for everyone…”
Let us change with Eastleighwood, make the world a better
place and if possible, impact as many youths lives with knowledge and skills to
help them get to the next level. That is, self empowerment.
