We believe in the power of youth as catalysts for change.
Everything we do is created with young people — not just for them. Together, we design projects that put youth in the driver’s seat, giving them a strong voice in shaping their own futures.
Through our projects and place-based approach we help young people feel a sense of belonging in their community – supporting wellbeing, strengthening connections and fostering healthy lives.
We know real change happens when the community is at the heart of it. That’s why we work closely with local partners, listen deeply, and build strong relationships that make great things possible.
By backing young people and their communities to lead the way — with their stories, ideas and energy — Becoming U supports projects that spark action, create opportunities, and grow leadership from the ground up.
