At Lightup Impact, we bridge divides and equip youth leaders with the tools, networks, and knowledge to drive real change. Our programs are built with young changemakers, not just for them—because those closest to the challenges are closest to the solutions. Through our Youth Founder Advisory Board, we co-create opportunities that put youth at the center.
Our approach is built on three pillars:
🔹 Networking & Peer Support – Connecting 100+ grassroots youth leaders with policymakers, funders, and advocacy networks through conferences, public events, and private youth-led peer-learning spaces.
🔹 Trust-Based Partnerships – Fostering trust between youth leaders and key stakeholders, opening doors to meaningful collaborations.
🔹 Skills & Capacity Development – Providing training, webinars, and an intensive one-year program to strengthen leadership and impact.
Join us in shifting power to young changemakers
