The Eclub Foundation, an integral part of the Eclub, aims to improve the lives and prospects of underprivileged young people by teaching them the skills and principles behind leadership and entrepreneurship. We use entrepreneurship as a vehicle for social change by educating young people on how to "add more and more value in less and less time, at higher and higher levels of quality." Essentially, helping them to do something good in order to make a difference in their lives and the lives of others. This empowers them with meaning and purpose, giving them the drive and skills they need to achieve the outcomes they want.

 Why?

41% of young people worry that they will never be able to provide for themselves or their families.

Over 1 in 5 young people who have been unemployed for 6 months or more say "I'll never amount to anything."

 1 in 4 say they have felt suicidal at some stage.*

Isn't it about time we changed that?

How?

The Eclub Foundation exists to educate young people about entrepreneurship and what it can do for them. We do this through our mentoring programs, workshops and mastermind support groups.

What next?

On 27^th August 2010 in partnership with the Junior Leadership Academy, The Foundation is organising a national relay run from John O’Groats to Lands End!

Our aim is to raise funds, awareness and support

for those who need it most.

We would like to invite you to be involved in any way possible, even if that’s simply running a mile, or contributing your spare pennies! Please use the Ammado link above if you would like to do the latter.

Could there be anything more important than investing in young people?

If you are interested in helping in any way please email info@e-club.org.uk or call Tess Ince on 0207 193 1023
