Youth Empowerment Program
The future of this world belongs to the younger generation; as a result, we must do what we can to facilitate their transition in order to ensure it is bright. Teach My Nation’s “Youth Empowerment” program gathers talented youth from across the globe and allows them to partake in our various humanitarian relief projects.
Youth for Haiti Program
– Haiti’s most impoverished district has the highest infant and children mortality rate in the country.
– For every 1,000 children born 45 to 50 do not survive or 90 to 100 die within their first five years of birth due to malnourishment in expecting women coupled with poor post-natal care.
– This unfortunate crisis has also cost the lives of 479 children and left 22,000 hospitalized due to water borne diseases in 2016.
This program allows college students from across the USA an opportunity to spend part of their summer alongside trained professionals helping those in need. These youth spend one full week working with our Jordan office to get an eyewitness account of some of the harsh conditions people are living in.

Youth Efforts in the Region:
Spending time at the orphaned Syrian refugees by going to the local shopping center, playing on rides together and sharing a meal with them. This allowed our group to form a bond with these precious children and bring joy to their day.
