Why Do We Do
What We Do?
At YFS, we believe in bridging the gap left by traditional education systems. We prepare underserved students for the workforce by:
Teaching entrepreneurship and work-ready courses in collaboration with schools and partners.
Providing internships to give students real-world experiences, helping them develop practical skills for their future careers.
Given the current challenges societies face, few needs are more critical than preparing students for their futures.
Who Are Our Students?
YFS focuses on secondary school students, particularly those from underserved backgrounds. We operate on a ‘Robin Hood’ model, where we charge those who can afford it to help deliver our courses and internships to underserved students. Last year, 99% of our course students and 85% of our internships were provided free of charge, thanks to the generosity of donors like you.
How Do We Do This?

Our Funding Model
YFS is a Hong Kong-registered charity, and our primary funding comes from donors and the paid internships we offer. Our long-term goal is to cover our headquarters' costs through internship revenue, allowing donations to be fully dedicated to expanding our reach and impact.
