The main objective of the YEP Sports Mentorship Hub is to facilitate the transfer of knowledge, skills, and insights from seasoned professionals to those who are looking to develop their careers in the sports industry and incorporating a variety of activities, such as one-on-one meetings, group sessions, workshops, and networking events.
There are many ways to get involved and support our cause. You can make a donation, become a Volunteer Mentor, or even organise a fundraising event in your community. Whatever you choose, know that your contribution will make a difference in the lives of those in need.
