✨ Today we successfully hosted the #AYPNConnect Breakfast Meeting in Nairobi! The room was filled with dynamic young leaders passionate about shaping the future of youth philanthropy and development in Kenya. From thought-provoking discussions to new partnerships formed, the energy and eagerness to make a tangible impact was palpable. These are the changemakers driving innovation and sustainable development across the continent, and we are proud to provide a platform for their voices to be heard. A huge thank you to all who joined us and the East Africa Philanthropy Network-EAPN for their commitment to strengthening the ecosystem of youth philanthropy in East Africa, and partnering with us to make this gathering a success.
