The Dut Jok Youth Foundation

The Dut Jok Youth Foundation The Dut Jok Youth Foundation aims to empower South Sudanese youth through the vehicles of education, recreational sports & leadership building activities

The goal of the Dut Jok Youth Foundation is to harness the potential of South Sudanese youth by funneling resources and providing opportunities through education and sports to offset the post-war disenfranchisement of the current generation. We have delivered sports equipment and school supplies to three South Sudanese cities; serving several hundred young people. The foundation has sponsored stud

ents to attend schools in east Africa through the Dut Jok Scholarship. We sponsored the South Sudanese Youth Summit in 2014 and will continue to run programs in the United States. In addition to these programs, the foundation hopes to establish sports academies in the 10 South Sudan states, run an annual sports development camps, run an after-school development program, and eventually build a school in the next decade. Help us use the power to sports and education to change the history of the world's youngest nation.
