Be The Light: A Movement to Empower Young People


My Story: In 2021, I left my comfort zone to pursue my dreams in a strange land. It was the toughest decision I ever made, but it was also the most rewarding. I faced many challenges along the way, but I refused to give up. I knew that I had something to offer the world. I had a light to shine.


But I also saw the darkness. I saw young people making the wrong choices because they didn't have the support and guidance they needed. I saw a world that was becoming colder and darker.


That's why we started Be The Light. We wanted to create a movement to empower young people to shine their light. We wanted to give them the tools and resources they need to build a better future for themselves and for the world. (Margaret Oyigeya)
