Some members of the Plateau Youth Council (PYC), Jos North Chapter, have received entrepreneurship grants from the Dachung Musa Bagos Foundation to boost their small and medium-scale enterprises (SMEs) and promote self-reliance among youths.
The grant disbursement followed a two-day intensive training facilitated by the Plateau State Microfinance Development Agency (PLASMIDA) in support of the Foundation’s initiative to empower young leaders across communities.
Speaking during the ceremony at the PLASMIDA Hall, the Executive Director of the Foundation, represented by Programs Manager Mr. Alpha Dali, urged beneficiaries to view the grant as a springboard to expand their businesses and become economically empowered.
Chairman of PYC Jos North, in his remarks, thanked the Foundation for the gesture and called on recipients to remain transparent and accountable to attract similar opportunities in the future. The beneficiaries also expressed gratitude, pledging to invest the funds wisely to grow their enterprises and inspire further youth support.
