CHANCEN International

We're happy to share a testimonial from one of our Members, Regine, on what ISA enabled her to do and the importance of community. "ISA not only financed my education but also laid the foundation for my career. I secured my first job, through Chancen’s recommendation. It provided valuable experience and a great learning environment. Without ISA community network, I wouldn’t have had that opportunity. Today, I’m proud to be repaying my ISA, contributing to the next generation’s access to quality education and the opportunities that shaped my journey." #EducationForAll #Impact #ChancenCommunity #YouthEmpowerment

Did you know - By 2050, 1 in 3 young people globally will be from Africa? There is a huge opportunity for Africa's youth to become the leaders, innovators, and drivers of global culture, consumption, and stability. But with 72.6 million jobs needed in sub-Saharan Africa by 2050, the region faces an urgent challenge the International Labour Organisation (ILO) calls a "youthquake". At Chancen International, we’re stepping up to the challenge! Here's how we’re contributing in solving the challenge: 1. Bridging the Skills Gap: We provide tailored educational finance through our ISA model that equips young people with the market-driven skills they need to thrive in today's workforce. 2. Empowering Vulnerable Youth: Our focus is on empowering vulnerable groups, particularly women and underserved communities, by providing access to education that leads to employment. 3. Creating Pathways to Sustainable Employment: By partnering with institutions that emphasize career support, we ensure graduates are connected to real job opportunities, addressing the challenge of insecure work and offering opportunity for income growth. Africa's youth have the potential to shape the future, and we’re here to make sure they have the opportunities and tools to do that! Join us in empowering the next generation.
