WE ARE YOUNG Foundation

At YOUNG Foundation, we believe every big change begins with a seed - a small idea, a moment of courage, a quiet dream. But growth doesn’t happen alone. That’s why we exist: to nurture the roots of ambition and help young changemakers shape something bold, lasting, and theirs.

Who We Are

YOUNG Foundation is the social impact foundation of the YOUNG ecosystem.
We believe that the mindset needed to succeed in entrepreneurship is the same mindset required to succeed in sport: discipline, responsibility, perseverance and teamwork.

That is why we focus on two connected pillars:

  • Entrepreneurship & mentorship for young founders
  • Youth and talent development through sport

Our mission is to help young people build confidence, skills and real opportunities — regardless of background or location.

What We Do

1. Entrepreneurship & Mentorship

We support aspiring young entrepreneurs by:

  • Connecting them with experienced mentors
  • Offering access to networks and real-world business insights
  • Creating opportunities to learn from people who have built companies themselves

We focus on practical guidance, role models and real experience — not just theory.

2. Youth Development Through Sport

We invest in youth sports programs because sport teaches:

  • Discipline and structure
  • Teamwork and leadership
  • Resilience and mental strength

We work together with sports clubs and community organizations to support:

  • Youth academies
  • Talent development programs
  • Women’s and grassroots sports initiatives
  • International community sports projects

Sport is not just about performance — it is about building strong, confident individuals.

DIFFERENCE

Why We Combine Sport and Entrepreneurship

Top athletes and successful entrepreneurs share the same foundations:

  • They train consistently
  • They learn from coaches and mentors
  • They take responsibility for their growth
  • They push through setbacks

At YOUNG Foundation, we build both paths side by side — because we believe that strong character is the true basis of long-term success.

Our Role Within YOUNG

YOUNG Foundation operates as an independent non-profit organization within the broader YOUNG ecosystem.
While YOUNG builds companies and platforms, the foundation focuses purely on social impact and youth development.

Our goal is simple: to make sure opportunity reaches young people before talent gets lost.
