Stories like Betith’s show how targeted skills & assets can drive change for groups at risk of social or economic barriers. @AVSIUganda partnership with @NLinUganda proves that many more young people can achieve decent livelihoods.

I depended on subsistence farming with no clear path. Everything changed when @NLinUganda funded Y-Connect provided skills in poultry+startup support. I'm constructing my poultry unit & starting with 30 birds, aiming for 60 & to make my own chicken formula within 4 months —Betith
