HELP MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

Young people are the world's most precious resource. They provide fresh vision, leadership and critical problem-solving perspectives to some of the world's most intractable challenges. Building pathways to a sustainable future for the world’s young people requires our TOTAL INVOLVEMENT, commitments in tapping the vision and skills of young people themselves, and the consistent investment of inspired donors, supporters, sponsors and partners. It requires the steady commitment of institutions and organizations that further youth development, and the engagement of economic and political systems that depend on the labor and leadership of young adults. Collectively, as strong supportive teams, we are capable of creating and sustaining a set of opportunities that will enable each young person to develop to his or her fullest potential, and thus contribute to the future growth of healthy, prosperous nations

 For the past decades, since 1991, in dealing and working with thousands of  ex-child soldiers,  young children and teenagers affected by war and natural disasters, CMI believes that in order for majority of the world's young people to obtain the ability to make a successful transition to employment, represents the single most predictable determinant of their long-term success in achieving personal and economic self-sufficiency through the guidance and the involvement of community efforts. Finding meaningful, decent work, providing young people with the opportunity to test and hone their problem-solving skills and develop a robust sense of their capacity to affect the conditions of the world around them. The sad reality today is that increasing numbers of young people are not given access to the tools and support they need to successfully navigate this transition to work.  Your support and commitment are pressing needs to help empower, develop and transform our young generation as our future leaders.
