YEAH.Org is a South Sudanese national non-governmental organization established to transform the lives of young people and communities through education, skills development, health promotion, environmental action, peacebuilding, protection and humanitarian assistance.

We work with communities, not for them — co-creating every intervention.

Integrity, creativity, innovation, inclusion and accountability in everything we do.
Integrated, evidence-driven programs designed to reinforce one another across every community we serve.

Learn moreSouth Sudan's young population has enormous potential. Yet many young people and communities still face barriers of poverty, interrupted education, unemployment, conflict, displacement, climate shocks and gender inequality.
Our programs prioritize:
At YEAH.Org, we believe every young person and every community has the potential to overcome adversity and build a better future. Our responsibility is to help unlock that potential.
“The digital lab changed what my daughter believes is possible. She now dreams of building technology for South Sudan.”
“Through the cooperative, our farm reached new markets. We can now plan for the future instead of surviving season to season.”
“The mobile clinic means our elders and mothers no longer walk half a day for care. It has changed life in our village.”
Every contribution funds seeds, classrooms, mobile clinics, youth stipends, and emergency assistance for the communities we serve.
