We are very honored to be accepted as an Independent Award Centre for the Duke of Edinburgh Award.

This milestone means a lot to us and even more to the young people we support. The Duke of Edinburgh Award is one of the most respected youth achievement programs in the world, and now the youth in our care have a real pathway to take part in it.

Through the Award, they will set personal goals, contribute to their communities, develop practical skills, and push themselves in ways they may never have had the opportunity to before. For young people growing up in institutional homes, that kind of structured growth and global recognition can be genuinely life-changing.

We have been walking alongside youth in care for 17 years. This is one more way we are making sure they have access to the same opportunities as everyone else.

私たちはデューク・オブ・エジンバラ賞の独立アワードセンターとして認定されたことを大変光栄に思います。この賞を通じて、施設で育つ若者たちが生活に必要なスキルを磨き、地域社会に貢献し、世界的に認められる資格を取得できるようになります。彼らの挑戦を一緒に支えてくれるボランティアを募集しています。

Now we need volunteers to help mentor these students as they begin their journeys. You do not need a special background - just a willingness to show up and support young people who are working hard to build their futures.

If you are interested in volunteering, visit us at youmewenpo.org or reach out directly at [email protected]. We would love to hear from you.
