Youths For Excellence

Youths For Excellence company information, Employees & Contact Information

Youths For Excellence is a registered charity and non-profit organization headquartered in Kingston, Jamaica that serves inner-city youth sitting their exit examinations in grades four to six. It was incorporated on June 16, 2015 by Founder Jénine Shepherd out of a need to try to bridge the gaps in education caused by societal inequities. At the core of our organization is the idea that a holistic approach to education reform is needed. The future demands that every child gets a whole systems approach to closing the gaps in education– families must be included in the system change. We accomplish this by providing tutoring food, healthcare and school supplies to inner-city children as well as opportunities for personal development and career advancement for their families. Since our founding, we have assisted over a thousand students with our holistic model that gained us the Prime Minister's Youth Award for Excellence in Nation Building from the Jamaican Government. We have begun the expansion of our work to rural areas of Jamaica and have expanded our scope to Barbados, Grenada, Trinidad and Tobago and Guyana. Most notably, we have cemented our organization as an authority on education in Jamaica and have been called on to champion collaboration across the region in discussions around the future of education.
