About us

Yarang Llamisi Foundation (YLF) is a registered non-profit and non-governmental organization solely birthed to equip, educate, enlighten and motivate girls and women of the North Eastern Region of Nigeria. Our main purpose is to reduce the gender inequality gaps as we believe that our vision will put the target group firmly on the track of literacy through quality formal education and life skills to becoming self-reliant.

It is a known belief that to educate a girl or woman is to educate not just a community but a nation. Girls and women in the North Eastern Region of Nigeria are usually disadvantaged when it comes to education, empowerment and being able to fend for themselves. Acquiring the needed formal education, vocational and entrepreneurial skills will set them on the part of securing a good job, starting a sustainable business and contributing to the development of their communities and the economy.
