Jos, Plateau State – In a bold stride toward youth empowerment and economic revitalisation, the Dachung Musa Bagos Foundation has granted One Million Naira (₦1,000,000) in financial support to the Plateau Youth Council (PYC), Jos North Chapter.
The grant, aimed at catalysing youth-led entrepreneurship and sustainable livelihoods, marks a significant milestone in the Foundation’s ongoing mission to uplift young people in Plateau State. This intervention will directly benefit selected youths in Jos North whose innovative business ideas have undergone rigorous review and approval in collaboration with the Plateau State Microfinance and Investment Development Agency (PLASMIDA) and the Jos North PYC leadership.
This initiative underscores the Foundation’s commitment to creating pathways out of poverty through financial inclusion, capacity building, and access to startup capital.
Dachung Musa Bagos, Founder of the Foundation, emphasised that empowering youths economically is not just an act of charity, but a strategic investment in the future of Plateau State and Nigeria at large.
“Youth are not just the leaders of tomorrow—they are change-makers today,” said Bagos. “When we invest in their ideas, we invest in innovation, job creation, and community transformation. This grant is a seed we are planting in the lives of young people, and I am confident it will yield lasting fruit.”
The Dachung Musa Bagos Foundation has consistently championed programs focused on education, child protection, and youth development. Past initiatives have supported vulnerable children with school supplies, health care, and mentorship. This latest economic empowerment grant reflects the Foundation’s expanded vision to tackle youth unemployment and underemployment through practical, results-driven interventions.
Community leaders and youth stakeholders have commended the initiative, describing it as timely and impactful in a climate where many young people face economic hardship despite their potential and ambition.
As the Foundation continues to expand its reach, it remains steadfast in its belief that an empowered youth is the cornerstone of a prosperous society.
