Activities & Services

AHY aims to build a community characterised by taqwa, through engaging, connecting, and developing the youth. Specifically, this means: driving engagement of the youth with their faith and the community; connecting the youth with each other and the broader community; and facilitating the holistic development of the youth.

AHY has now grown to include over 100 members across gents and ladies, and the platform now includes dedicated project teams for Socials, Baraza Corner, Podcasts, Youth Engagement, Relief, Creatives and Personal Development. These teams will continue to provide dedicated events and initiatives for the community. AHY serve the members themselves, by providing further opportunities for development and social cohesion.
