| Host Organization Details: |
Future Youth Club (FYC) is an Egyptian non governmental organization that was founded by a group of young Egyptians in October 2000 who believe in restoring the values, ideas, and culture and empowering youth through social action.
Our organization seeks to make a positive impact on Egypt’s cultural, economic and social development through the cultivation of innovative project ideas until they are independent and successful national models.
FYC also strives as an organization to provide an organizational model that can be replicated by other Egyptian community groups, non governmental bodies working towards a better Egypt. This is done through collaboration and networking and constructive action.
FYC members work towards developing local communities that are enriched with a strong sense of culture. Which are full of energy, talent, and great ambitions that will greatly inspire and impact future generations. |
