DARE 2 DREAM YOUTH INITIATIVE

Organization Profile

In the midst of major world challenges, something profound is being reborn – recognition that youths with concern, vision and commitment can make significant contributions to transforming the planet.

That is what D2DYI is all about, an organization that brings youths together, youths that believe that according to Mahatma Gandhi they can be the change they want to see, youths that believe in self motivation, value based leadership, the New Nigeria and the positive deployment of our talents and potentials.

D2DYI aggress with Margaret Mead that you “never doubt that a small group of thoughtful commitment citizens can change the world. Indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has”

Some men see things as they are and say, ‘why?’ we dream of the things that never were and say, ‘why not! We see a new caliber of youths rising to build the New Nigeria of our dreams and we are committed through positive actions in seeing it come to pass.

The youths of D2DYI are stepping above the limitations of their environment, we are daring to dream, and knowing that in the dream of a better tomorrow lies the very future we hope for.
