ABOUT

Mentor Me was founded to bridge Africa’s development gap, particularly as the continent faces an unprecedented rise in youth populations with limited opportunities for advancement. Traditional paths—from primary education through to tertiary education and conventional employment—are increasingly unable to meet the needs of young people. Declining education standards and outdated curricula only widen this gap, making it harder for youth to secure meaningful work and realize their potential.

 

At the same time, entrepreneurship has emerged as a powerful solution for economic growth and stability, providing a pathway for young people to contribute to their communities and economies. Mentor Me seeks to harness this potential by serving as a platform for innovative and sustainable change, focused on empowering marginalized communities through enterprise. Our mission is to uplift and equip young people with the mindset, mental skills and thinking agility they need to thrive in the midst of the pressing challenges they face and to become self driven, fearless and proactive champions of positive change.
