Youth Rocks Foundation

About Us

​

Youth Rocks Foundation is an apolitical and non-religious organization working towards the empowerment of youth and women towards a sustainable livelihood. Our work focuses on designing and delivering social interventions that focus on making young people and women gainfully employed, thereby paving a way out of poverty for them. To this end, our projects deliver crucial skill development to our targeted beneficiaries who may be living and studying across the state of Uttarakhand. Through our flagship projects ‘Pahal and Muskan’ we aim to work closely on building skills for Youth and Women respectively. These skills supplement their current pursuits while providing important inputs like Computer and Financial Literacy, and Soft-Skill Development while connecting them with available employment and business opportunities.

​

Since our inception in 2017, we have conducted various activities as part of our outreach strategy and have engaged with young people in a plethora of developmental and awareness activities including seminars, workshops and events. These have given us both acceptance within the beneficiary circles and an identity that is recognized for development. With this foundation, we are now building a strong implementation framework that will deliver well-defined projects with clear and measurable outcomes. The two programs that we have developed based on the understanding that we have gained from our experience so far are as follows:

​

• Project Pahal

• Project Muskan
