Daakye Kɛseɛ - “A Bright Future for the Youth” Program: Transforming Lives Through Tertiary Education Support

The Self Reliance Empowerment Foundation (SREF) is proud to launch its flagship project, EmpowerFuture, designed to equip young adults in Africa with job-ready degrees through the BYU Pathway Worldwide Program.

This initiative opens doors to globally recognized institutions such as Brigham Young University and Ensign College, offering life-changing opportunities to underserved communities like James Town, where many youths face limited prospects.

Why EmpowerFuture?

At EmpowerFuture, we believe that education should not be limited by geography or circumstance. We create a learning environment that makes online education feel like a true campus experience by providing:

Serene Learning Spaces:

Fully equipped with high-speed Internet, laptops, and study materials.

Comfortable Study Amenities:

Access to water, snacks, and refreshments to keep students focused and motivated.

Study Groups and Mentorship:

In-person sessions led by mentors and peers, fostering collaboration and accountability for educational sustainability.

Financial Assistance:

Support in obtaining Visa cards for tuition payments, ensuring seamless access to education.

Community Engagement:

Opportunities to build a strong network through community initiatives and entrepreneurship projects.

Our Objectives:

EmpowerFuture is more than an educational program—it is a movement to:

Build Self-Reliance:

Equip youth with degrees that lead to meaningful employment and financial independence.

Reduce Teenage Pregnancy:

Inspire young women and men to focus on their education and personal growth.

Foster Entrepreneurship:

Instill a spirit of innovation and self-reliance, empowering youth to create opportunities for themselves and their communities.

Why James Town?

In a community where opportunities are scarce, EmpowerFuture is bridging the gap by giving young people access to education, mentorship, and a vision for a better future. By investing in these young adults, we are helping them break cycles of poverty and transform their lives and the lives of others around them.

What Makes EmpowerFuture Unique?
